ABOUT THE CHOREOGRAPHER

French-American choreographer Carole Alexis has electrified audiences with her Ballet des Amériques dance company since its foundation in 2011 and has won numerous awards and proclamations for her contributions to the arts and the advancement of culture. A student of Maurice Béjart, Carole Alexis’ choreographic work is rooted in classical ballet training and tradition while drawing upon influences as disparate as children’s games, island rituals, natural phenomena, and modern urban life. Her dances entice and charm the viewer with elements of humor, psychological insight and surprise. Alexis is an artist who understands that movement is the most basic human expression and that the refinement of French ballet technique has allowed for the highest level of movement possible. Her company’s extensive and eclectic repertoire bears her distinctive signature and vision, reinvigorating “ballet” and modern dance for new audiences and connoisseurs alike
