“Hans van Manen is the most important choreographer of the Dutch tradition, and we are thrilled to bring four works from his oeuvre to San Francisco. His legacy is unparalleled, shaping what we think of now as the signature Dutch style. What appears to be simple choreography is actually quite difficult to perform. Focused on musicality and powerful exchanges of energy between humans, these works allow the Company to showcase their charisma, top-tier virtuosity, and individuality. It’s a wonderful opportunity to witness SF Ballet’s dancers take on a uniquely European style.”
– Tamara Rojo, Artistic Director of San Francisco Ballet
