WINTER EXPERIENCE || Rehearsing Leonid Yakobson’s Vestris Soloist Daniel R. Durrett is gearing up for his Vestris debut this Sunday, Mar 23! He’s getting expert guidance from Associate Director of Boston Ballet II and former Principal Dancer at San Francisco Ballet Joan Boada. Fun fact: Joan has performed this iconic neoclassical solo at the Palace of Versailles—where its inspiration may have originated! Come see why it is so special for Boston Ballet to bring this solo ballet back to the stage, starting tomorrow! 📷 @dani_durrett @joanboada75 by @brooketrisoliniphoto #BostonBallet #BBWinterExperience #WinterExperience #Debut #Vestris #Dance #Ballet

WINTER EXPERIENCE || Slipstream “They are fresh and alive, so I feel like I’m in conversation with them as we put forth this program.” –Claudia Schreier on fellow Winter Experience choreographers Balanchine and Jakobson Last performed in 2022, Claudia Schreier’s innovative ballet Slipstream returns in Winter Experience. Step into the studio with Schreier as she collaborates with our dancers to breathe new life into this piece, and reflects on the significance of her work being staged alongside neoclassical legends like George Balanchine and Leonid Yakobson.  Witness four incredible works that showcase the breadth of neoclassical ballet, opening this week on Mar 20! 🎥 @claudiaschreier @chyrstynmariah Patrick Yocum @sagenicolehumphries @tys.ali @chenxinballet @danielafabelo @dani_durrett @dancechae @lashakhozashvili @louise.hautefeuille @lrherfindahl @__hayden @angel.garcia.molinero @gearoidsolan @h_schwan @schuylerwijsen by @erniegalan #BostonBallet #BBWinterExperience #WinterExperience #Choreographer #Choreography #WomensHistoryMonth #AmplifyingVoices
