SUMMARY:The Joffrey Ballet
DESCRIPTION:Straying far from Shakespeare’s familiar path\, the peerless Joffrey Ballet returns to Berkeley with Alexander Ekman’s daring and exuberant Midsummer Night’s Dream\, a mind-bending trip to a surreal realm of unearthly delights. This “odd\, wonderful\, provocative and utterly original work” (Chicago Sun Times) begins during the traditional Scandinavian summer solstice festival—the dancers celebrating a day of revelry and romance under the maypole—but soon blossoms into a sensual\, otherworldly fantasy. Featuring Swedish indie rock sensation Anna von Hausswolff and performed to a score by composer Mikael Karlsson\, Midsummer is a bold fusion of classical and contemporary ballet that artfully blurs the line between the real and the imagined\, and makes us wonder\, is it all a dream? \nInfo & Tickets

SUMMARY:A.I.M by Kyle Abraham

And the kinetic new 2 X 4 is a collaboration with composer and saxophonist Shelley Washington fueled by contrasts and oppositions. \nInfo & Tickets
