Step into the future of ballet with The Blake Works, a thrilling program that ignites the stage with raw energy and innovation. In this electrifying three-part series, William Forsythe, one of the most influential choreographers of our time, pairs his ground-breaking movement with the evocative vocals and electronic score of Grammy Award-winner James Blake.
High-octane, rhythmically charged, and visually striking, The Blake Works redefines what ballet can be. Forsythe’s signature deconstructed aesthetic meets Blake’s evocative soundscape to create a kinetic experience that is as daring as it is unforgettable.
Making its San Francisco Ballet premiere as a full evening, this program merges Forsythe’s Blake Works I with Company premieres of Prologue and The Barre Project in a celebration of his relentless drive to push ballet into uncharted territory. This is ballet like you’ve never seen it.
