Spring Series 2020 
at The Wilma Theater, March 18-29

BalletX, led by Christine Cox, presents its Spring Series 2020, featuring three world premiere ballets by Nicole Caruana, Gregory Dawson, and John McFall with music by Elvis Presley, Jessye Norman, and Ezio Bosso.

Caruana, BalletX’s 2020 Choreographic Fellow, is quickly ascending the ranks of emerging choreographers, with a recent commission by Scapino Ballet Rotterdam and several international awards.

Dawson is an Isadora Duncan Award-winning choreographer, and Artistic Director of San Francisco’s dawsondancesf, a company he founded in 2007, following a nearly 20-year career dancing with Alonzo King LINES Ballet.

McFall performed as a dancer with San Francisco Ballet for nearly two decades before choreographing for Mikhail Baryshnikov at American Ballet Theatre, and several others. He is the former Artistic Director of Atlanta Ballet and BalletMet.

BalletX, named “among America’s best” by The New York Times, and recently featured on the cover of Dance Magazine, is Philadelphia's premier contemporary ballet company.
