Guided by our LINES Ballet’s Teaching Artists, families with children ages 4–12 will connect with choreographer Alonzo King’s work and philosophy while moving, grooving, and collaborating to create dances all their own. Families will also get a sneak peek of the company dancers in rehearsal on stage.
This season, LINES Ballet presents a world premiere to the music of legendary spiritual leader, composer, pianist, and harpist Alice Coltrane. Her transcendental music has inspired Alonzo King since his childhood. Also on the program is King’s latest work for the San Francisco Symphony set to Maurice Ravel’s enchanting “Mother Goose” suite. “San Francisco Classical Voice” called it “a marvelous visual feast.”
