San Francisco Ballet: New Vision with Tamara Rojo and Aszure Barton
In her first season as San Francisco Ballet’s artistic director, Tamara Rojo will center cross-disciplinary and cross-cultural collaborations, celebrate the artists and histories of San Francisco, and spotlight women’s voices on stage and off. In this Works & Process program, go behind the scenes of the newly commissioned Mere Mortals, with music by Floating Points and choreography by Aszure Barton. Aiming to provide an immersive and visceral experience for the audience's senses, the work will recontextualize the classic parable of Pandora’s box for our modern world and mark the first full-length work SF Ballet has commissioned from a female choreographer. Join Rojo and Barton as they discuss the creative process and how the work will take on the possibilities and consequences of artificial intelligence. Company dancers perform excerpts ahead of the ballet’s world premiere on January 26, 2024.
