Lar Lubovitch’s choreography is a
thrilling sight,
ravishing the eye,
telling stories both complicated and mysterious.

THANK YOU !!

We thank all of our supporters who made our season at the Joyce Theater last month such a huge success. You made it possible for us to create two new dances and to present them, with live music, for the great enjoyment of many thousands.

Dance writers loved Artemis in Athens, praising it as “witty, “charming,” “lovely” and “delightful.” Alessandra Ferri was lauded as “sensational,” “glamourous and glorious,” and her partner Tobin Del Cuore was called “wonderful” and “impressive.”

Pundits were likewise transfixed by The Black Rose, calling it a “cinematic ballet that is both alluring and disturbing.” Writers found it “macabre,” “hallucinogenic,” “lustrous and evocative.” Mucuy Bolles was called “brilliant” and “gorgeous.” Reid Bartelme and Barton Cowperthwaite “were both outstanding” and “perfect.”

Please help us raise the final $80,000 we need to cover the costs
we incurred in creating and presenting the two new dances:

On the occasion of the annual conference of APAP (the Association of Performing Arts Presenters), the Lar Lubovitch and Martha Graham Dance Companies are joining forces for a special showing of new works and classics. On January 9th, exclusively for those who are attending the APAP conference, the Lubovitch company will perform The Black Rose, which premiered just last month at the Joyce Theater. The dance will tour in 2015 with support from the National Dance Project. The Graham company will perform Graham's stunning Steps in the Street and previews of new works by Liz Gerring and Sonya Tayeh. Both Lar Lubovitch and Janet Eilber will be on hand to introduce the works.

This spring, American Ballet Theatre will perform Lar Lubovitch’s Othello at the Metropolitan Opera House. Hailed “as a milestone in the history of dance in this country” by the San Francisco Examiner when the ballet debuted in 1997, Othello has not been seen in New York in more than 8 years. Othello is being presented by ABT in 2015 as one of the highlights of their 75th anniversary season. To mark the festive occasion, the Lubovitch company will be hosting a theater party with artists and friends.
