The 2021 ABT Incubator features six new works created in ballet bubbles, choreographed by Zhong-Jing Fang, Joseph Markey, Sung Woo Han, Luciana Paris, Luigi Crispino, Sung Woo Han, and Melvin Lawovi.

This is American Ballet Theatre dancer Jose Sebastian’s first year directing the program, taking over the reins that David Halberg left upon becoming Artistic Director of The Australian Ballet in October of 2020.

ABT Incubator provides a focused lab to inspire new choreographic voices and generate ideas for the creation of new work. The process of this year’s ABT Incubator began in Spring 2020, as Jessica Lang, mentor for the program, provided composition workshops for ABT dancers wanting to explore choreography.

Due to the studio shutdown forced by the pandemic, ABT Incubator participants adapted to unprecedented circumstances to create new work on their colleagues over Zoom and in isolated “ballet bubbles,” while following strict health and safety protocols.

Each final work was filmed for presentation.

“I expected that stepping into David Hallberg's shoes would not be an easy feat. “David left some pretty big shoes to fill, and then, the pandemic was thrown into the mix. I did not expect how rewarding it would all be. The success of this year's ABT Incubator season is owed to the fantastic team that stood by patiently teaching me the ropes, and the awesome choreographers and dancers selected for this year's program. Watching the artists develop their creations, always rising to the challenges with an ‘I can do this’ enthusiasm, was a privilege. I look forward to sharing these beautiful films with everyone.”
