Cost: free, no ticket required
From the venue:
The Rite of Spring, choreographed by Vaslov Nijinsky, with music by Igor Stravinsky, celebrates its 100th anniversary as a legendary work-- a model of formal radicalism. Lynn Garafola, dance historian and critic, proves how this ballet’s conceptual freedom demonstrates its modernity and its engagement with the contemporary world.
