ParkingTwyla Now
The world’s most iconic living choreographer Twyla Tharp premiered her first ballet at City Center during the 1973 season of The Joffrey Ballet. So, nearly half a century later, there is no more fitting place to celebrate the pioneering artist than on our stage in this once-in-a-lifetime event. Stars from three of New York’s premiere dance companies—Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater’s James Gilmer and Jacquelin Harris; American Ballet Theatre’s Aran Bell and Catherine Hurlin; and New York City Ballet’s Sara Mearns, Roman Mejia, and Tiler Peck—are joined by Tony-nominated actor and dancer Robbie Fairchild in a program of duets and two world premieres including an ensemble finale featuring the principal dancers and a group of young performers, the next generation to glory in Tharp’s genius.
