Coppélia rehearsal ft. Sarah-Gabrielle Ryan and Kyle Davis | Pacific Northwest Ballet Pacific Northwest Ballet 2024-05-22 | A wedding pas de deux from real-life engaged PNB Principal dancers Sarah-Gabrielle Ryan and Kyle Davis.We asked them what it was like to partner together: “We’re so comfortable with each other that our dialogue is often unfiltered when working together - for the person leading the rehearsal it’s probably like watching a scene from a bad rom-com. The rehearsal process can be challenging, but it’s always a rewarding experience. It’s a gift to be able to dance with someone you trust unconditionally and can always look to as a grounding presence. Getting to share our real love with an audience is the cherry on top.”COPPÉLIAMay 31–June 9, 2024pnb.org*****************************SUBSCRIBE TO OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL► http://bit.ly/PNBSubscribeFOLLOW US ON FACEBOOK► http://bit.ly/PNBFacebookFOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM► http://bit.ly/PNBInstagram
Coppélia | Sketch to Stage | Pacific Northwest Ballet Pacific Northwest Ballet 2024-05-16 | Pacific Northwest Ballet brought to life a new redesign of George Balanchine's Coppélia back in 2010, with the help of acclaimed scenic and costume designer, Roberta di Bagno.With the majority of the sets and costumes being made here in Seattle, here's a throwback to the creation of the Act I that takes place in a quaint town with lush wisteria hanging from the rafters."Because the story is so charming, di Bagno said, “I set it in a special place, a porcelain world.” She smiled at a drawing of Swanhilda’s teacup-shaped house, all blue-and-white with hanging flowers. “I think you will want to live there,” she said."COPPÉLIAMay 31–June 9, 2024pnb.org*****************************SUBSCRIBE TO OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL► http://bit.ly/PNBSubscribeFOLLOW US ON FACEBOOK► http://bit.ly/PNBFacebookFOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM► http://bit.ly/PNBInstagram

Alexei Ratmanskys Wartime Elegy excerpt | Pacific Northwest Ballet Pacific Northwest Ballet 2023-11-09 | A review from The Seattle Times"The highlight, for me, was the opening ballet, a work I could watch over and over: Alexei Ratmansky’s “Wartime Elegy,” created for PNB last year and dedicated to the people of Ukraine — and finding new poignancy during these doubly dark times. Ratmansky, who grew up in Ukraine, effortlessly merges two very different kinds of dance here: boisterous, folk dance-flavored playfulness, celebrating a joyful culture; and somber, achingly beautiful ballet that spoke of anguish and loss, with arabesques like gentle arrows and music (composed by Valentin Silvestrov, with lovely solo piano by Christina Siemens) of a piercing purity."Read the full review: rebrand.ly/SeattleTimesRepIIReviewFeaturing Pacific Northwest Ballet dancer Luther DeMyer.LOVE & LOSSNovember 3–12, 2023pnb.org*****************************SUBSCRIBE TO OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL► http://bit.ly/PNBSubscribeFOLLOW US ON FACEBOOK► http://bit.ly/PNBFacebookFOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM► http://bit.ly/PNBInstagram
