Fast Forward

April 8th - May 6 - Streamed from the Hammer Theatre

FAST FORWARD will be available to view OnDemand between April 8 - May 6, 2021. The video streaming link will be sent out on April 8 to the email address you provide in checkout.

Enjoy a fast-paced evening of new contemporary ballet. Often described by the dancers as their favorite program of the season, Fast Forward provides the opportunity for emerging choreographers, both local and from around the country, to experiment. The chance to dance work that has been created specifically for them, rather than perhaps for dancers who performed hundreds of years ago, allows New Ballet’s Company Dancers to grow as artists and to be part of the creative process. Audiences will be thrilled and inspired watching choreographic and dance artists take risks and create.

Dancers dancing within six feet of each other share a household.
