ABT's got game
The American choreographer program is more of a retrospective than "best of" American choreography program. The two Twarp pieces are terrific. Bach Partita is far and away the best balletic piece she ever did. It's totally jacked, it alone is worth the price of the ticket.
However the two older pieces by Robbins and Tippet are just that "old". If the intent of the program is to demonstrate the breadth and evolution of American choreography from the 1940's to the 1980's then the program does accomplish that. If on the otherhand the intent is to pick the most dynamic choreographers of the past 50 years and put together a knock your socks off program, there are a number of other pieces that could have been included in the program that would have left us breathless. I vote for breathless.
