For over eleven years of award-winning works, Chicago-based choreographer Stephanie Martinez has moved her audiences along a journey guided by kinetic momentum. The company will debut a world premiere, World of Another, marked by a versatility that expands the boundaries of contemporary ballet movement. Internationally renowned choreographer Christopher L.
