What's inside:

What goes into reconstructing a ballet classic? Doug Fullington discusses his book, Five Ballets from Paris and St. Petersburg, and the historical reconstruction of “Sleeping Beauty” from archival material for Pacific Northwest Ballet. Choreographer John Cranko’s life and choreography is lionized in a beautiful new biopic by Joachim A. Lang. Time to start, time to change, time to create, and time to move on—four extraordinary creatives, Katherine Barkman, Olga Smirnova, Jiri Kylian, and Stephen Petronio, discuss creative transition. Candice Thompson examines the art of protest in Field Notes, while Faye Arthurs writes on the significance of death in the choreography of Bill T. Jones, George Balanchine, and Martha Graham. Wayne McGregor’s “Woolf Works” sparks consideration of how best to translate the page to the stage. Acclaimed New York poet Myra Malkin writes the two halves of Balanchine’s “Chaconne.” Our writers review what’s new and noteworthy on stages around the world. American Ballet Theatre principal Isabella Boylston is transformed into an urban angel in a photo essay by Karolina Kuras.
