The legendary Joffrey Ballet assumes a special place in this Presenting Series season: in residence at DPAC. Over one week, the world-renowned company is developing an unforgettable program of two tantalizing dance compositions highlighting their artistry, athleticism, and contemporary vision. Our audiences will be the first to preview Broken Wings, inspired by Frida Kahlo, and the nostalgic modern love story Wasbash & You.Harmonizing classical technique with moving ensemble storytelling, the Joffrey continues to be a leader among the most celebrated dance companies by unapologetically interpreting what ballet is now and will be into the future. And, they chose our community as the company's temporary home, preparing two brilliant dances for you and the world. The Joffrey's creative practice from their week in residence will leave an indelible mark on our community, and for audiences, a lasting impression with memories for a lifetime. GET TICKETS
