Works & Process, the performing arts series at the Guggenheim, presents English National Ballet: Akram Khan's Giselle on Sunday, November 11, 2018 at 7:30pm.

It can be a rarity, but every so often, perhaps once a year if you're lucky, you stumble across a work so sublime it leaves you a little stumped as to how to describe it. Unfortunate when you need to review it, however. English National Ballet's Lest We Forget first opened in 2014, marking the 100th anniversary of the beginning of the first World War. Just two years into Tamara Rojo's tenure as Artistic Director, it was a bold statement about where the company was heading. Four years later it sits proudly in their repertoire, a modern masterpiece to absorb, devour and shed a tear.

Con el propósito de que nadie se quede sin ver el espectáculo Yo, Carmen de María Pagés Compañía, el Instituto Nacional de Bellas Artes   anuncia que los boletos podrán adquirirse al 2x1 este jueves 30 de agosto. La promoción solo será válida en el sistema de compra electrónica de ticketmaster; no aplicará en taquilla.

Cuando la maestra María Pagés y el escritor El Arbi El Harti pensaron en la creación del montaje Yo, Carmen, no quisieron hacer una revisión del célebre personaje de la ópera de Georges Bizet. Ellos deseaban ahondar en la empatía femenina para situarse como la voz de una mujer que se alza con fuerza ante todos, nítida y contundente, para expresar la realidad que afronta y construye el alma femenina, así como los contextos donde se desenvuelve. Yo, Carmen, cuyo personaje es colectivo, aspira a ser la voz de todas las mujeres, sin subterfugios, sin dobleces heredados, sin miedos ni connotaciones construidas por la mirada patriarcal.

Works & Process at the Guggenheim is pleased to announce its fall 2018 season, which includes new dance and music commissions, and a gala featuring a revival performance of a Works & Process Rotunda Project in the Guggenheim's iconic Frank Lloyd Wright-designed space. Since 1984 the performing-arts series has championed new works and offered audiences unprecedented access to leading choreographers, composers, dancers, musicians, and playwrights, among others. Programs explore the creative process through stimulating discussions with artists and riveting performance highlights. Each 70-minute program takes place in the museum's Peter B. Lewis Theater unless otherwise noted. Additional information is available at worksandprocess.org.

Emerging from a winter of traditional crowd-pleasers featuring Nutcracker and La Sylphide, the dancers of English National Ballet were finally allowed to cut loose in this new mixed bill - thanks to some eerie swamp monsters and a new and unexpected club banger from William Forsythe.

The beautiful story of Clara and her enchanted Nutcracker doll is as much a part of Christmas as carols and novelty jumpers. The pair discover a magical world where they battle with the Mouse King and take an enchanted hot air balloon rides over a snow-covered London to the land of the Sugar Plum Fairy; it is enough to make the hardest of hearts feel a little softer.
