DESCRIPTION:<h3><strong>GERALD R. FORD AMPHITHEATER</strong></h3> <h4 class="text-teal"><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Swerve: a sudden change of direction</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> </span></h4> <p class="text-lg">Dance as an art form progresses through innovations and changes of direction, both sudden and gradual. Hosted by Festival Artistic Director Damian Woetzel, UpClose features dramatic "swerves" in the history of dance as shown through the works that have led this art form forward. This program features Festival stars in rehearsal and performance mode as they take on groundbreaking choreography from across centuries of dance styles from ballet and modern dance to street styles, tap, and ballroom.</p> <p class="text-lg"><em>Generously underwritten by Jeffrey Byrne & Rosalind Reed.</em></p> <a class="btn btn-teal" href="https://vaildance.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/7.28-UpClose_web.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">PRINTED PROGRAM</a>   <em><strong>C</strong></em><em style="font-weight: bold;">asting and repertory are subject to change.</em> <hr /> <em>Photo credit:</em> Lauren Lovette, James Whiteside, and Unity Phelan in rehearsal for Serenade (1934) by George Balanchine on the UpClose | Mr. B: George Balanchine's 20th Century program of the 2023 Vail Dance Festival.

The works Butterfly Etude and Harp Etude, performed by Artist-In-Residence Sara Mearns, would not have been possible without support from Lori Belilove. Lori Belilove’s direct lineage and prestigious performing career have earned her an international reputation as the premier interpreter and ambassador of the dance of Isadora Duncan. As a third generation Duncan dancer, Belilove is considered the living embodiment of Duncan’s grace, power, and mastery of weight.
