New Ballet's Fast Forward

Presented by New Ballet

New Ballet, the institution that Silicon Valley looks to for excellence in the art of ballet, announces the 6th annual Fast Forward, an evening of new contemporary ballet by six choreographers, Saturday, March 18, 7:30 pm at the Hammer Theatre Center. 

 

Fast Forward provides the opportunity for emerging choreographers, both local and from around the country, to experiment. The program offers New Ballet Company Dancers the opportunity to perform work that has been created specifically for them, and to grow as artists and be part of the creative process. In addition, the choreographers provide the audience with a behind-the-scenes understanding of the new works by discussing the choreographic process and providing context and insight into their inspiration.
