Pacific Northwest, Miami Ballets to Sub for Joffrey

Share

The Pacific Northwest Ballet and the Miami City Ballet will replace the canceled Joffrey Ballet engagement at the Orange County Performing Arts Center in Costa Mesa, the center announced Thursday.

The Joffrey was to have danced April 4-9 at the center but had to cancel its national tour for financial reasons. Those exact dates, however, could not be filled by the center because companies were not available.

Seattle-based PNB will dance Kent Stowell’s 1994 production of “Cinderella” June 13-15. The Miami troupe will dance a repertory program July 14-16, including Balanchine’s “The Four Temperaments” and “Western Symphony” as well as two ballets by company resident choreographer Jimmy Gamonet de Los Heros, “Transtangos” and “Nous Sommes.”
