As the ballet company system has developed more trainee and second-company ranks over the past few decades, more dancers are on a longer, more winding path from training to career. Whether they’re in the trainee and second-company pipeline, BFA ballet programs, or completing college degrees in topics outside of dance, these college-aged dancers are eager for a rigorous summer intensive experience—while treating them like adults. Here’s how some programs are filling that need. Read the article on Pointe+ at the link in our bio! 💕 📸: Dancers at the @cincinnatiballet Collegiate Intensive.

Cincinnati Ballet’s 60th anniversary season concludes with Rep 5—Playlist, a collection of three one-act productions by groundbreaking artists. Here are some exclusive images from Blake Works II (The Barre Project) – created by one of the world’s foremost choreographers, William Forsythe, set to the music of James Blake. The work follows in the footsteps of Blake Works I and II which have been called love letters to dancers and to the art of ballet itself. 📸1: Katherine Ochoa | Photography: Hiromi Platt 📸2: Maine Chernjavsky | Photography: Hiromi Platt 📸3: Taylor Carrasco | Photography: Hiromi Platt 📸4: Katherine Ochoa | Photography: Hiromi Platt 📸5: Thomas Dilley and Chandler Proctor | Photography: Hiromi Platt 📸6: Katherine Ochoa | Photography: Hiromi Platt 📸7: Taylor Carrasco | Photography: Hiromi Platt 📸8: Caroline Perry and Joshua Stayton | Photography: Hiromi Platt 📸9: Taylor Carrasco | Photography: Hiromi Platt 📸10: Caroline Perry and Joshua Stayton | Photography: Hiromi Platt #balletphotography #williamforsythe #balletperformance #balletworld #forsythe #contemporary #contemporarydance #cincinnati #cincinnatiballet #cincy

Our final production of the 2023-2024 Season - PLAYLIST - includes a WORLD PREMIERE from choreographer Peter Chu at the Aronoff Center, May 10-12. Inspired by the iconic voice of Annie Lennox, CONSTRUCTive SOUND embraces the art of construction, enriching the physical realm with a touch of architectural finesse. As architects lay foundations and shape structures, dancers and choreographers mold movements and rhythms, weaving a tapestry of beauty and grace. The word “construct” encapsulates the essence of action, establishing a solid base and giving form to our creative endeavors. With a constructive mindset, I approach our craft with proactivity and transparent communication, nurturing growth and fostering a supportive environment. Throughout this creative process, I relish the opportunity to start anew, delicately reshaping the contours of the physicality with gentle precision. I find comfort in the guidance of an inner voice, a mentor that resonates with unwavering support and encouragement. Annie Lennox’s voice provided this guiding light during the dance-making journey. CONSTRUCTive SOUND showcases the power of expression, capturing the raw emotions we feel when bringing something new into existence.  Explore PLAYLIST at #linkinbio
