KETTENTANZ

(Gerald Arpino/Johann Strauss Sr. & Johann Mayer)
A charming to the eye, and technically demanding classical masterwork, filled with Viennesse dances, was inspired by The Joffrey’s acclaimed visit to Vienna in 1969.

PANORAMAGRAM – REVIVAL

(Charles Moulton/Bill Obrecht)
An ingenious, rhythmic, innovative ball-passing ballet set to an original quick-paced score. This work was originally commissioned by The Joffrey Ballet as part of Absolut Joffrey in 1991.

CREATIVE FORCE – (World Premiere)

(Laura Dean)
A world premiere by Laura Dean, who created NIGHT, her first work for a ballet company, for The Joffrey Ballet in 1980. Now 18 years and 7 ballets later, her new, yet-to-be-titled work, will be an ensemble piece, featuring high energy, repeating geometric patterns, and fast movement.
