This triple bill will be highlighted by the premiere of Peter Quanz' first ballet for the RWB. Quanz is a Canadian prodigy who won the 2005 Clifford E. Lee Award and was the first Canadian to create a work for the legendary Kirov Ballet. Also includes the return of two audience favourites, Mark Godden's ode to romantic love, As Above, So Below and Itzik Galili's Hikarizatto, where extreme movement is set to rhythmic drumming.
"Galili creates kaleidoscopic dazzle with varied lifts, sky-high kicks and male-female entanglements happening simultaneously on different depth planes."
– Winnipeg Free Press, 2007
"Godden has created a sexy, high energy piece. "
– Winnipeg Free Press, 2001
