Review: Jekyll & Hyde at Finnish National Ballet by Val Caniparoli
I got the chance to see the ballet version of Jekyll and Hyde at the Finnish National Opera and Ballet. The thing that struck and absorbed me to make sure I get a seat was the amazing Instagram advertisement. There were two men dancing in sync in red lights. Just a few clicks and I knew they were Jekyll and Hyde. I wonder why so few institutions and groups have grasped to take advantage of a simple, movie-like teaser peace for a performance. It really grasps your interest.

BWW Review: AMERICAN BALLET THEATRE SCORES SPLENDIDLY WITH ABT FORWARD at Segerstrom Center For The Arts
The 'American' in American Ballet Theatre is more evident than ever before. The pristine presentation consisted of three different and unique pieces using music from America's most distinguished contemporary Composers. Leonard Bernstein, the varied well-known composers and lyricists of songs Tony Bennett sings, and noted jazz pianist Jason Moran; with contemporary, audacious, well-known Choreographers Alexei Ratmansky (ABT's Artist in Residence) the legendary Alonzo King (his first piece for ABT), and the whimsical, all-out entertaining Jessica Lang.
