Eclectica
Overview
Three memorable and rewarding ballet experiences! Eclectica features a world premiere by the highly acclaimed, James Kudelka, first introduced to audiences by the late co-founder, Robert Joffrey Kudelka is universally respected for his remarkable talent, quality, and innovation in choreography. The young and extremely talented, Jessica Lang, also presents a world premiere! Lang is known for her creative vision and emotionally spellbinding work and is one of the few female choreographers working the classical realm. As a tribute to our late co-founder, The Joffrey will perform Gerald Arpino’s neoclassical Reflections. This stunning ballet is a perfect example of the “Arpino” style – high lifts, a flying pace and classic beauty, all set to the music of Tchaikovsky.
