American Ballet Theatre, in conjunction with the Guggenheim’s Works & Process series, will present A Look Again: ABT’s Corps de Ballet on April 6 and 7 at 8 P.M. and A Rose by Any Other Name… on April 27 and 28 at 8 P.M. in the Peter B. Lewis Theater at the Guggenheim Museum.

For A Look Again: ABT’s Corps de Ballet, ABT Ballet Mistress Susan Jones will lead an open rehearsal with members of the corps de ballet to demonstrate the detailed work that goes into perfecting ensemble performances. The first movement of George Balanchine’s Symphony in C and an excerpt from the Kingdom of the Shades scene from La Bayadère will be performed. In addition, senior corps dancers will discuss their time and experiences in the corps de ballet.

Moderated by Principal Dancer and Ballet Master Guillaume Graffin, A Rose By Any Other Name… offers insight into Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet by alternating actors’ readings of the play with excerpts of Kenneth MacMillan’s choreography of the ballet performed by ABT dancers.

Each event presents excerpts of productions accompanied by discussion among the artistic collaborators, offering insight into the creative process.
