Pure Dance by Ballet RI
My colleague James Baumgartner loved this show when he saw it in Providence, and now you have a chance to see it in Fall River! It’s a program that celebrates the “power, precision, and poetry of the moving body,” via three works by three choreographers: “Allegro Brilliante” by George Balanchine; “Liturgy” by Christopher Wheeldon; and “Fading Creatures” by Yury Yanowsky.
- Where: Margaret L. Jackson Arts Center, Bristol County Community College, Fall River, Mass.
- When: April 25-26
