Join Ballet Arizona March 28 through 31 for the return of its annual production, “Contemporary Moves” at Orpheum Theatre. Ballet Arizona will present a masterful program of four innovative works by Ib Andersen, Nayon Iovino, Alejandro Cerrudo and Paul Taylor. This year’s selection of contemporary ballets celebrates South America, from Brazil to Argentina, inspired by its music, landscapes and traditions. “Contemporary Moves” is a dance lover’s dream as this vibrant program features an evening of diverse short ballets, similar to a collection of short stories, from some of the most masterful choreographers of our time. Arizonans will experience the new and unexpected as Ballet Arizona presents Nayon Iovino’s “Inner Layer,” Alejandro Cerrudo’s “Never Was,” Paul Taylor’s “Piazzola Caldera,” and Ib Andersen’s “Rio.” Audiences will enjoy musical compositions from Philip Glass, Astor Piazzolla, Jerzy Peterburshsky and more.
