James Sewell Ballet Presents: Pointed Humor

The approximate run time of the event is 105 minutes with a fifteen minute intermission.

James Sewell Ballet leaps onto the stage with bold new works. Featured is the highly-anticipated choreographies of two guest choreographers and old friends of the company. Shohei Iwahama (former JSB dancer and current member of Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo) brings an expansive group work that emanates curiosity, play, and kinship. And Michael Walters returns with his fourth choreographic commission with a passionate duet, at moments both gritty and gentle. This remarkable evening includes two Sewell works: a new sextet that blends classical and contemporary ballet within Bach’s ‘Concerto for Violin & Oboe’; and a remount of ‘Doo-Be-Doo’, which combines high-energy playful antics with stunning technical feats.
