Twyla Tharp is a living legend, and this show presents a joyous celebration of her 60 years on the cutting edge of what dance can show the world. Starting with Tharp’s 1975 piece “Ocean’s Motion,” the rock tunes of Chuck Berry announced that Tharp is here to break down balletic tropes and bring dance to the culture. Afterward, enjoy two new works – the Jacques Brel appreciation piece “Brel” and a new take on Vivaldi in “The Ballet Master.” Both prove that you can’t keep a good Tharp down. – Cat McCarrey
