Set to music ranging from Dean Martin to traditional Israeli songs, Israeli choreographer Ohad Naharin’s Minus 16 is an electrifying work that shows the bold, new directions in the world of contemporary dance. Naharin’s compelling choreographic process and inventive, lushly layered movement vocabulary have made him a favorite guest artist with dance companies around the world.
After giving us 2011’s Quietly Walking, we are excited that Gina Patterson is back creating another world premiere in the Atlanta Ballet studios. Dance Informa Magazine described her last work as a “polished balletic masterpiece,” and her new piece will not disappoint.
Christopher Wheeldon’s Rush made its Atlanta debut during last year's New Choreographic Voices program, and it returns this season with its first performance on the Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre stage. Rush is a wistful, neo-classical homage to the conventional pas de deux that will leave you breathless.

Join us as we explore the theme of love through both classic and innovative choreography. One of the featured works is the quixotic wedding night pas de deux from Stanton Welch’s Madame Butterfly, which The AJC named a “showstopper… [with] a cascade of sinuous, interlocking moves of controlled exuberance.” The Telegraph called the piece “[p]layful, sexy and stunningly challenging.” Highlighting the athleticism and passion of Atlanta Ballet’s dancers, these performances find new meaning in the world’s greatest love stories.
