The mixed bill features three dynamic works: Catch by Liam Scarlett, set to Philip Glass’s music, highlights pure movement and the athleticism of the dancers. Tuplet, choreographed by Alexander Ekman with music by Mikael Karlsson, transforms the dancers’ bodies into percussion instruments, creating energetic, rhythmic performances. The program also includes the world premiere of Hypnagogia by Annabelle Lopez Ochoa, exploring the mysterious state between wakefulness and sleep. This captivating event promises a fresh and unexpected ballet experience.
