Description

American Midwest Ballet’s award-winning mixed repertory program features an exciting mix of ballets that showcase the expressive range of dance. Guest choreographer and Broadway performer Ray Mercer is creating a world-premiere work that celebrates community in a style he calls “very contemporary, very athletic.” Renowned choreographer Frank Chaves is reviving 'Eva', a work hailed by the Chicago Sun-Times at its premiere as “an instant classic.” AMB artistic director Erika Overturff serves up 'The Diner', an audience favorite that celebrates America’s love of food and the open road. And the famous grand pas de deux from the classical ballet 'Don Quixote' blends charming acting with dazzling technical feats.
