Oct. 12-13: Alonzo King Lines Ballet

Alonzo King LINES Ballet will bring contemporary ballet to the stage on Thursday, Oct. 12 at 7:30 p.m. at the Weis Center for the Performing Arts. There will be a free pre-performance talk the same day as the performance at 1 p.m. in the Weis Center Atrium Lobby. The discussion will be facilitated by Atiya Stokes-Brown. There will also be a free masterclass for advanced/intermediate local dance students on Friday, Oct. 13 at 10 a.m. on the Weis Center stage. Dancers should come warmed-up and ready for a one-hour class.

San Francisco’s Alonzo King LINES Ballet leaps to uncharted heights with bold new dance innovations that break the mold of what ballet can be. LINES Ballet thrives on collaboration, pairing music from all over the globe with King’s dancers. King’s choreography dazzles audiences by digging into the mysteries of movement and bringing honesty and urgent spirituality to the stage.
