Five unique women creators will debut world premieres of dance performances at BostonBallet that they have led, each boundary-breaking piece featuring a distinctive vision and voice:
While female dancers make up a strong and significant part of the ballet world, historically, choreography has been directed with a male figure at the front of the room, said artist Lia Cirio. As these women artists take the spotlight through the presentation of their new works, the Boston Ballet endeavors to affect culture by empowering others to step forward and shine.
Set to music by Caroline Shaw, Peck’s vision for this six-person dance, “Point of Departure,” came from a story the composer told about an orange. The fruit is made up of individual sections that are each intricate and unlike the next one, and Peck’s opening tableau is loosely based on what an orange tree looks like, with vines intertwined around a nucleus. While the dancers all gravitate toward a center, they begin to break off and have solos, duets and trios.
