THE BOLSHOI BALLET DIRECT FROM MOSCOW, presented by BY Experience and Pathe Live, offers “A Contemporary Evening” at the Latchis Theatre on Sunday, March 19, at 1 p.m.

Featuring music by Igor Stravinsky, Carl Czerny, Leonid Desyatnikov, The Bolshoi boldly takes on a new challenge in a triptych of works by three masters of modern and contemporary choreography. For the first time, the company performs “The Cage” by legendary Academy Award-winning choreographer Jerome Robbins, a master of visualizing and translating music to movement. Together with Harald Lander’s homage to classical ballet in “Études” and Alexei Ratmansky’s colorful folklore-inspired “Russian Seasons,” “A Contemporary Evening” brings some of the best dancers in the world together with masters of contemporary choreography. The result promises to be an outstanding synthesis of Robbins’s energy, Lander’s virtuosity, and Ratmansky’s witty brilliance in a programming first.

General admission is $20, $10 for students. Please contact Sharry Manning at 802-257-5717 or sjmpr@comcast.net for advance credit card purchase or questions.
