ASPEN SANTA FE BALLET

Matinee Idol Beauty, Olympian Athleticism, Nobel Laureate Inventiveness

This is one of the great up-and-coming touring companies, and chances are you will be treated to choreography you have never seen before.  They are known for innovation and new works, and their performances are rooted in the athleticism of contemporary dance. Based in two homes, Aspen and Santa Fe, this troupe has no in-house choreographer and instead relies on the work of often little-known dance-makers.  The result? Well, the proof is in the applause – spontaneous, enthusiastic, and thunderous – and inevitable return engagements.
