Pacific Northwest Ballet’s 2007 Summer Vacation was definitely a quick one! We got back 2 ½ weeks ago to get ready for our tour to Vail, Colorado, where we will be performing at the 2007 VAIL INTERNATIONAL DANCE FESTIVAL. Damian Woetzel was named the new artistic director for the festival and we are very honored to be invited to perform during his first Festival. PNB will perform three shows, July 29th and 30th and August 1st. We are bringing incredible ballets to Vail, from Balanchine to Nacho Duato to William Forsythe to Twyla Tharp. These performances should be very exciting.
Additionally to these shows I will also be dancing on August 3rd and 4th at the International Evenings of Dance, an evening Damian organized that will show stars from the Royal Ballet, New York City Ballet, Alvin Ailey, Pacific Northwest Ballet and many others. Bold and I will dance a Pas de Deux from Rassemblement, a Nacho Duato piece, and Balanchine’s Diamonds.
And I will also be dancing on a very exciting night. The premiere of Morphoses, Christopher Wheeldon’s new company. The performance will be on August 10th, and a preview on the 8th. I am so excited to be able to dance Polyphonia with his new company. Thank you Chris for inviting me to be part of this special evening.
And if all this preparation wasn’t enough I had some time to do a photo shoot with Angela Sterling this past weekend. Angela and I had a great time together. Angela was shooting for a promotional shoot for PNB. I think I have given the winger readers her link before, but for the ones that haven’t got a chance to see her work you can go to www.angelasterlingphoto.com to check out her amazing photos.
Hope some of you can make it to Vail. It is going to be a very exciting festival.
