Next week we're seeing The Seasons' Cannon at PNB and I absolutely cannot recommend it enough! We saw it last time the company did it and I think about it alllllll the time. The Seasons' Cannon is a work by Crystal Pite and involves an entire stage full of dances moving at the same time in a way that will give you permanent goose bumps; the other pieces in the rep are Sweet Fields by Twyla Tharp, which they last performed in 2022's All Tharp program, and a solo piece by Jessica Lang (who was just named resident choreographer) called The Calling.
By the way, thank you for mentioning the dress rehearsals a while ago! We were busy during the run of One Thousand Pieces, but were available for dress and I'm so glad we still got to see it!

Thanks for all the great rec's each week!
I am SO bummed I missed The Seasons' Canon this year! I heard it was truly incredible... can you confirm??
So glad the dress rehearsal tip was helpful! I definitely need to take my own advice on that one too and get back on my ballet game.
