Triple Bill

The 50th anniversary season will commence with a triple-bill production in Gates Concert Hall at the Newman Center for the Performing Arts at the University of Denver. The three-work program will begin with the return of an audience favorite, Edwaard Liang’s Feast of the Gods. Having made its world premiere by Colorado Ballet in 2009, Feast of the Gods celebrates the passion and history of a band of traveling gypsies. The Company will follow Feast of the Gods with the reprise of Lar Lubovitch’s ...smile with my heart. Created for American Ballet Theatre in 2002 as part of the Richard Rodgers Centennial, ...smile with my heart employs four excerpts from Marvin Laird’s Fantasie on Themes by Richard Rodgers. The program will close with a world premiere by choreographer Matthew Neenan, currently the choreographer-in-residence at the Pennsylvania Ballet.
