Ballet’s poetic movements are pages of a story gracefully unfolding onstage. It tells of love, loss, and passion. Miami City Ballet, one of the largest companies in the nation, invites you to indulge in the troupe’s art. Program II features the premiere of Liturgy by the acclaimed resident choreographer of New York City Ballet, Christopher Wheeldon. Liturgy is an almost ritualistic pas de deux set to the haunting music of Arvo Pärt. The performance also includes a company premiere of one of Twyla Tharp’s most popular works, In the Upper Room; George Balanchine’s Agon; and Jerome Robbins’s Afternoon of a Faun. Performances take place at the Carnival Center for the Performing Arts tonight and Saturday at 8:00 p.m., and Sunday at 2:00 p.m.
Jan. 12-14, 8 p.m.
Will you step up to support New Times this year?
At New Times, we’re small and scrappy — and we make the most of every dollar from our supporters. Right now, we’re $17,250 away from reaching our December 31 goal of $30,000. If you’ve ever learned something new, stayed informed, or felt more connected because of New Times, now’s the time to give back.
