DANCING SCHOOL - Variation 2

"To appreciate is to be fully aware of quality." - Harold Bloom

For the dancers, Dancing School is about learning to dance better. For the audience, its about learning to see better.

At Dancing School, you'll see five ACB dancers attempt the same solo variation. Comparing the strengths and weaknesses of each dancer, you'll begin to understand what every element of technique and artistry contributes to your impression.

Why? To borrow from Virginia Woolf, to get the deepest and widest pleasures from watching. And what are they dancing? Each Dancing School features new choreography.

Very limited seating. Each program is one night only.

Four of the women who inspired George Balanchine, one of the greatest artists of all time, join ACB for Dancing School II, coaching the dancers alongside ACB Artistic Director Lincoln Jones.

Ballet Society members are invited to stay for an extraordinary Conversation at 5:30 pm: ACB Artistic Director Lincoln Jones speaks to Balanchine's dancers about their experiences at the epicenter of the golden age of ballet.

It's not just the show! Enjoy wine, conversation and live jazz with the artists and other audience members overlooking the rooftops of LA's skyscrapers. It's all included in your ticket price.
