BOLERO X, set to French composer Maurice Ravel’s 1928 masterpiece, Bolero, features a 20-member ensemble in breathtaking synchronization as they mimic the score, gradually building towards a hypnotizing crescendo.
SWAY is an intimate exploration of hope inspired by Emily Dickinson’s Hope is the thing with Feathers—seven graceful dancers in fluid, harmonic transitions between duets and the group.
