World premiere works, the return of a Joffrey blockbuster, and the Chicago debut of a story ballet of such grand scale that it is rarely seen in the United States.
The Joffrey goes Inside the Studio with Mckoy for his world premiere creation for the Joffrey Studio Company and Academy Trainees, part of this year’s Winning Works program at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago.
The Joffrey’s spring double-bill features the Joffrey premiere of George Balanchine’s first ballet created in America in 1934, and Cathy Marston’s world premiere adaptation of Steinbeck’s classic American novella, with an original score by Academy Award®-nominated composer Thomas Newman.
