The season continues with INFINITY, featuring two of the world’s foremost and truly masterful choreographic voices. Crystal Pite’s Frontier is back following its unforgettable 2024 Ballet BC debut, and the work of Jiří Kylián makes a triumphant return to our stage with the visionary 27’52”.
One of the most distinct and celebrated choreographers of our time, BC’s own Crystal Pite, has built much of her work around the question of what moves us. Her fascination with the unknowable finds its ultimate expression in Frontier, a work originally created in 2008 and re-imagined for Ballet BC in 2024.
Here, the unknown traverses dark matter, the personification of shadows, and the challenge of doubt. “As a creator, I find a pleasing parallel between what we don’t know about the universe, and what we don’t know about consciousness,” says Pite. “Creation for me is about venturing into unknown territory and being in a generative relationship with doubt.”
Back on stage at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre after a landmark seven-venue tour across the UK including London’s Sadler’s Wells, don’t miss a visionary creation from a globally sought-after talent, here where it all began.
