What is ballet?Forget everything you thought you knew about “ballet” because it's probably no longer true. Today, ballet companies are diverse arts organizations that offer audiences the art of dance in many forms and styles. If you have never been “to the ballet”, then you likely have an image of ballerinas in pretty tutus tip-toing around the stage. The reality is that today’s contemporary ballet is filled with intensity, power, provocative subjects and visuals, amazing athleticism and artistry, contemporary popular music alongside great classical pieces, and a stunning visual beauty that can only be compared to a “painting in motion”. Seeing today’s contemporary ballet, as performed by the Rochester City Ballet, is one of the great experiences of the arts world. Everyone needs to do it at least once. With award-winning choreography by Artistic Director Jamey Leverett, as well as works created on RCB by some of the country’s great choreographers, you’ll be amazed at how much you enjoy “going to the ballet”. We guarantee that it will be like nothing else you have ever experienced and you’ll be thrilled that you took a chance and went “to the ballet”! |
