Living Legacies unites George Balanchine, Christopher Wheeldon and Frederick Ashton.
With George Balanchine and Frederick Ashton, Living Legacies not only unites two pioneering choreographers whose works are still state of the art for every ballet company and who have had a decisive influence on the art and development of classical dance, but with Christopher Wheeldon it also leads us into the present, highlighting lines and bridges. The legacy of classical ballet remains alive not only in the continuation of choreographic traditions, but also in their rethinking and reinterpretation, as well as through the dancers who find themselves in the here and now.
