Ballet RI: In Motion

UNITED Black Box Auditorium
Join the UNITED’s resident dance company, Ballet RI, as they present In Motion - a special night of dance live at the UNITED featuring three pieces - Bathers, City of Women, and a world premiere in collaboration with the Sandra Bornstein Holocaust Education Center.
Ballet RI returns to the luminous world of American Impressionism with Yury Yanowsky’s Bathers, where fleeting moments are suspended in movement like brushstrokes on canvas (inspired by works at the Westerly Museum of American Impressionism). The evening continues with the company premiere of City of Women by James Whiteside, a bold and neoclassical exploration of femininity, identity, and power. Rounding out the program is a powerful world premiere inspired by the story of Lillian Birch created in collaboration with the Sandra Bornstein Holocaust Education Center. This moving new work asks what it means to remember, and how the body can carry history forward across generations.
Choreographers: Yury Yanowsky, James Whiteside
