Dance Theatre of Harlem

The historic Black ballet company returns to City Center for four nights to conclude the very first City Center Dance Festival. All four performances include the New York premiere of Robert Garland's Higher Ground and Annabelle Lopez Ochoa's Balamouk (Extended). The programs on April 5 and 9 also include Odalisques Variations from Le Corsaire as staged by Dylan Santos (after Marius Petipa's classic version); those on April 8 and 10 offer the New York premiere of Claudia Schreier's Passage instead. The Klezmatics perform live music at every show.
