Westside Ballet of Santa Monica presents “Masters of Movement: Ballet through the Centuries”—a richly varied program of classical, neoclassical, and contemporary works showcasing the range and talent of the nonprofit company’s pre-professional dancers, alumni, and guest artists—on Memorial Day weekend at the Eli and Edythe Broad Stage in Santa Monica.
On Friday, May 26, the pre-professional company will host its annual Soirée special event, including cocktails, appetizers, awards, and one-night-only guest artist performances. Andrea Laššáková and alumnus Adrian Blake Mitchell will dance Westside’s Premiere of “After the Rain” by acclaimed choreographer Christopher Wheeldon; and Maté Szentes and alumna Lyrica Woodruff will perform George Balanchine’s dazzling “Stars & Stripes.” Repertoire also includes a suite from Marius Petipa’s “Raymonda” and a newly commissioned contemporary work, “Color of Spring” by Vanessa Van Wormer. Both contemporary works feature live music.
Where: THE ELI and EDYTHE BROAD STAGE, 1310 11th St, Santa Monica, CA 90401
This will be Westside Ballet’s ninth year at the Santa Monica College Performing Arts Center.
