The Washington Ballet: Two Tickets to "Tudor, Ashton, Stiefel"
Item Number: 275
Time Left: CLOSED
Description
The Washington Ballet welcomes two (2) guests to a performance of "Tudor, Ashton, Stiefel" at The Kennedy Center Opera House.
Artistic Director Julie Kent’s first-ever commissioned work, Frontier, will be choreographed by Ethan Stiefel for The Washington Ballet. The work is inspired by President Kennedy and his aspirations for America as a leader of artistic, cultural, and intellectual excellence through his historic 1961 “urgent needs” address to the United States Congress. This speech launched what became a legacy in U.S. space travel and exploration with a determination for the United States to be the first to land a man on the moon.
Stiefel investigates space exploration through the perspective of the astronaut, delving into the emotional and physical rigors required for space travel. From the enigmatic anticipation of the adventure to the subsequent isolation of such a unique and powerful experience, the astronaut’s journey is compelling.
