NYC Ballet Winter Season

With the close of George Balanchine’s The Nutcracker, we launch directly into our winter repertory season. Highlights include the return of “Ocean’s Kingdom” and an all-Wheeldon program that includes “Polyphonia”, the NYCB premiere of “DGV: Danse à Grande Vitesse”, and a new work.

NYC Ballet’s Fall

/ , , /

I’ve just finished NYCB’s Fall season, which included the world premiere of “Ocean’s Kingdom”, choreographed by Peter Martins with music by Paul McCartney and lighting by Mark Stanley.  It was a challenging project but also a fun one to be a part of.  Next up is 12 Angry Men for New Players Company.

Tom Gold Dance

I just got back from a trip with Tom Gold Dance to Provence, France; Tel Aviv, Israel; and Bilbao, Spain. We performed a repertory that included works by Balanchine, Robbins, Petipa, and Tom Gold to sold out audiences in every country. It was a fantastic trip and the work looked great.

NYC Ballet in Saratoga

I’ve just returned from 3 weeks in Saratoga Springs, NY, the summer home of the New York City Ballet. We performed our usual varied repertory in the lovely outdoor setting of the Saratoga Performing Arts Center.

NYC Ballet Spring & Fall

We’ve just wrapped up the Fall Season at the New York City Ballet, which has taken up almost all of my time since mid-April. Next up, I’m designing Crimes of the Heart and The Odd Couple for New Players Company, and I’m headed up to Williams College in MA to light Davidsbunderlertanze for a weekend.

A Closer Walk with Patsy Cline

/ , , , /

I spent almost all of 2009 working on projects with the New York City Ballet, as I am now officially their Assistant Lighting Director. We just wrapped up our 2010 Winter Season. Next up for me is designing A Closer Walk with Patsy Cline for the Fiddlehead Theater Company in Boston at the John Hancock Hall. After that, I’m assisting William Armstrong at the Mint Theater on 43rd Street on the play Dr. Knock. After that, it’s time to prep the Spring 2010 Ballet season. I’m available for work for all of August and most of October and November.
