SACRAMENTO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Widespread enthusiasm for SacBallet is underscored by the 600-plus applications received for its March 12 auditions! Creating its own Olympian-worthy dance traditions, this month’s exciting Chrysalis performances (March 18-20) spotlight the dancer’s grace & technical dexterity. Single & multi-ticket bundles available.
“After watching the Olympics, Ballet is an ultimate forum for athleticism & dance,” said Artistic/Executive Director Anthony Krutzkamp. “In Chrysalis our dancers reach beyond their already high standards in a whirlwind of dynamic, energetic choreography designed to excite them as much as the audience!”
Making its SacBallet debut is choreographer Val Caniparoli’s acclaimed Tutto Eccetto Il Lavandino (“everything but the kitchen sink”). Merging classical ballet with unique contemporary movement, the work is a mesmerizing joyride of speed, precision & humor.
SacBallet alumni dancer-choreographers world-premiere new works: Nicole Haskins unveils the visually stunning Groundless Shift while Isaac Bates-Vinueza presents the semi-improvised collaborative After All.
Chrysalis will be performed at The Sofia, 2700 Capitol Ave, Sacramento, CA.
