Fall is the perfect time to immerse yourself in the beauty of dance — from homegrown talent to global ensembles.
A duet from Matthew Bourne's"Swan Lake" is performed by dancers Chris Trenfield, left, and Chris Marney, right, to musical accompaniment by L.A. Opera.“Swan Lake,” which famously swaps out the female corps de ballet with an ensemble of mysterious and menacing male swans, first turned heads during its 1995 world premiere in London. The show later had its U.S. premiere at the Ahmanson Theatre in L.A. and then returned in 2006 for a 10th anniversary encore.
Bourne’s take on the 19th century ballet centers on a dysfunctional royal family and a young prince forced to reconcile with his sexuality. After its L.A. premiere in 1997, critic Lewis Segal wrote in The Times: “Bourne’s secret weapon is intensity, and in its first three minutes alone his uniquely audacious and unforgettable reinterpretation delivers more of it than most traditional stagings generate in their whole first hour.” Ahmanson Theatre, 135 N. Grand Ave., L.A. $35-$145. 628-2772.
The show — written, choreographed and directed by Allen — features about 150 youth cast members dancing alongside professional artists. The show also stars Allen and actress Raven-Symoné. Redondo Beach Performing Arts Center, 1935 Manhattan Beach Blvd. $40-$125. 937-6607.
