Spring 2009 will feature the return of Signs and Wonders. Set to indigenous music from myriad African tribes, Alonzo King’s Signs and Wonders was originally commissioned by Dance Theatre of Harlem (DTH) in 1995 and toured worldwide. “Mr. King pays tribute to the wonders of creation with choreography filled with constant changes, ” in the words of The New York Times—drawing audiences into a world of evanescent ritual, where the dancers devote themselves to the miracle of transformative movement. This piece will incorporate Alonzo's inspirations from his current travels to Ethiopia. The season will also include a World Premiere set to classical music.

Groups of 10 or more save 20%. Order directly through Alonzo King's LINES Ballet by calling 415.863.3040 x283.
