BENJAMIN MILLEPIED MUST NOT SLEEP – how else could he be such a force in the world of dance? After a career as a principal dancer and choreographer for New York City Ballet, he directed and choreographed for the Paris Opera Ballet. He also directs (with help from Carla Körbes!) the LA Dance Project. Ben’s a big fan of PNB and returns to set his Appassionata. We are reviving his urban chic Three Movements and completing the program with a Balanchine masterpiece: Symphony in C, created for the Paris Opera Ballet. Rep 1 is a fine French feast; aperitif, entrée, and elegant dessert. Bon appetit!
