Run Time Approx. 1 hr 30 mins
Choreography Twyla Tharp, Ulysses Dove, and Justin Peck
Music Frank Sinatra, Mikel Rouse, and Dan Deacon
The music of Sinatra, a sneaker ballet, and daring athleticism come together in On Stage. Twyla Tharp’s Nine Sinatra Songs, Justin Peck’s The Times Are Racing, and Ulysses Dove’s masterpiece Vespers unite for a night of American choreographic innovation. Presenting all three works for the first time, BalletMet’s artists waltz, spin and reach their way through the stage lights.

Rick Braveheart & Barbara Braham
Rick and Barbara attended their first BalletMet performance when they were in their twenties. They were captivated by the power of dance to evoke emotion and leave them feeling more fully human than when they entered the theater.
They are delighted to support BalletMet in bringing Justin Peck’s The Times Are Racing to our community. May their generosity inspire the generosity of others.
Thank you, Rick and Barbara!
