“I treasure the opportunity to bring our audiences and dancers new works, and Rep 4 is often the place to find them. We’ll discover Jessica Lang’s arresting original work inspired by the landscapes of Georgia O’Keeffe, alongside a work created for the Dutch National Ballet just last year by David Dawson, plus the return of New Suite; William Forsythe’s refreshing collage of duets. An enticing mix by three of the most relevant and innovative dance-makers working today.” ~ Peter Boal
