Firebird at Smith Center's Reynolds Hall
Nevada Ballet Theatre’s mid-winter repertory program heats up the stage with three Las Vegas premieres and one world premiere. Featuring a mix of styles from neoclassical to contemporary, this performance is the perfect buffet of short works for both dance newbies and longtime fans.
Ukrainian choreographer Yuri Possokhov has created a crowdpleaser with his interpretation of the romantic Firebird fairytale, danced to the striking music of Igor Stravinsky. Late great ballet master George Balanchine choreographed Raymonda Variations for music by Russian composer Alexander Glazunov. Light Rain, the signature piece for Chicago’s Joffrey Ballet, is an invigorating pas de deux, featuring music by Douglas Adamz and Russ Gauthier. And celebrated contemporary choreographer Nicolo Fonte, the resident choreographer at Oregon Ballet Theatre, presents the world premiere of his new work, Crane/ing.
These pieces aren’t the only beginnings. For the first time ever, Las Vegas Philharmonic artistic director Donato Cabrera will lead a full orchestra accompaniment for Nevada Ballet Theatre. Arrive 45 minutes early for a free pre-performance discussion that will offer insight into the ballets. February 16-17, Times vary, $29-$139. –C. Moon Reed
