Description

Johan Inger, formerly Artistic Director of Cullberg Ballet and a member of the Royal Swedish Ballet and Netherlands Dance Theatre (NDT), has created a breathtaking work for nine dancers. Inger says, “our greatest blessings come to us by way of madness.” Choreographed for NDT in 2001, Inger received the Lucas Hoving Award (Dutch) for best production and the Danza Danza Award for this ballet. Also, this event features two world premieres featuring choreography by  Aszure Barton and Ballet BC’s own Artistic Director Emily Molnar who has created a new full-company work that explores the boundaries of the expressive body in time and space. Molnar is a former member of The National Ballet of Canada, Ballet BC and Frankfurt Ballet, where she created and performed an extensive repertoire under director William Forsythe.
