Amaturo Theater at The Broward Center for the Performing Arts

The nationally acclaimed Cleveland Ballet presents a one-night only performance of world-class ballet. Experience the thrilling juxtapositions of beloved classic and vibrant new choreography danced by some of today's internationally renowned dancers. Artistic Director and award-winning choreographer Gladisa Guadalupe has curated an evening that takes one into a world of ethereal, thrilling and dynamic movement; a world of human passions and experiences in a journey that encompasses excerpts of Margo Sappington's Rodin Mis en Vie - where dancers embody living statuary - to Don Quixote's well-known Pas de deux and Swan Lake's White Swan Pas de deux - considered one of the most beautiful dance duets in classical ballet. Juxtaposing these works are two by Ms. Guadalupe: a classical quintet choreographed to Schubert's Piano Sonata No. 13 in A major, Allegro, followed by the thrilling one-act ballet Momentum, set to Mendelssohn's Piano Concerto No. 1 in G minor. Come and be immersed in an unforgettable evening!

Choreography by Margo Sappington
Original Music by Michael Kamen

A choreographic game of 'statues,' Margo Sappington's Rodin, Mis en Vie takes inspiration from the great sculptor Auguste Rodin. The ballet presents a continuing view of the studio of the famed sculptor who believed that the entire body, not merely the face, was the mirror to the soul. Ms. Sappington has transformed the potential for movement into an actuality by having each dancer represent the figures created by Rodin. In these excerpts, the sculptures come to life to explore the human experiences that are embodied in them through dramatic and dynamic movement.
