Description

Chicago's Premier Ballet Company for your own pas de deux!


The Joffrey experience includes:




  • Two tickets to be redeemed for the Fall 2012 Joffrey Production (October 17 to October 28):



  • A pointe shoe used and signed by a Joffrey Ballerina Kara Zimmerman

  • A gorgeous coffee table book, "Fifty Years: Joffrey Ballet, an American Classic," replete with historical notes and an abundance of photos



The program includes:


1) Pretty BALLET


Choreography: James Kudelka
Music: Bohuslav Martinü
In the piece the Chicago Tribune called "thrilling, ingeniously designed, devilishly rebellious and brash in its showmanship," James Kudelka "tends to the muse," wistfully paying homage to the art of Ballet.  


2)  Forgotten Land


Choreography: Jirí Kylián
Music: Benjamin Britten
Searching for lost homelands, lost lovers, and lost times, this piece is "fiendishly fast and lusciously fluid."
Houston Chronicle


3)  The Green Table


Choreography: Kurt Jooss
Music: F.A. Cohen
An epic anti-war masterpiece, this must-see piece is "perfectly structured and so rich in imagery."
The New York Times
