A program distinguished by its variety opens with Balanchine's Divertimento from Le Baiser de la Fée, choreographed to a Stravinsky symphonic suite. Kyle Abraham's When We Fell was originally filmed and streamed during the pandemic, and here makes its live debut. Lynne Taylor-Corbett's Chiaroscuro, a ballet for six dancers from 1994, evokes the artistic term of its title through the interaction of light and shadow as well as diverging tempos, while Alexei Ratmansky's Odesa features three couples, their interplay infused with hints of drama, and a corps de ballet, and is set to incidental music from the Russian film Sketches to Sunset that alternates between the ruminative and the rambunctious.
