LINCOLN CENTER

David Koch Theater
American Ballet Theater

A second night of ballet!  The reason is to see the Mark Morris's production.  These others will be interesting and we may leave before The Green Table.  We really enjoyed last night, though.

Mixed Repertory Program After You: Mark Morris NYC Premiere  Cast:  Company Synopsis: One of the most acclaimed American choreographers, Mark Morris offers his third ABT commission this fall performed to Hummel's chamber work, Piano Septet No. 2 in C Major, with all-new costumes by Isaac Mizrahi.  Le Spectre de la Rose Cast: Sarah Lane, Herman Cornejo Synopsis: The fragrant scent of a rose and the memories of a young girl's first ball inspire her dreams in Fokine's haunting Le Spectre de le Rose. Its soaring leaps are legendary, and its tale of first love's awakening is timeless.  Valse-Fantaisie Cast: Hee Seo, James Whiteside Synopsis: Deceptively simple but fiendishly difficult, this Balanchine jewel charms with windswept dancing in perpetual motion, perfectly attuned to the joyfulness of Glinka's waltz rhythms. The Green Table Cast: Roman Zhurbin Synopsis: Considered the most powerful antiwar statement ever devised for dance, this indisputable masterpiece opens at a diplomatic conference around a table covered with regulation green cloth, followed by vivid tableaux of the futility of war.
