Spring Mix: 5 for 55 Casting Announceed
Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre has announced casting for its upcoming performances of Spring Mix: 5 for 55, a retrospective of its 55-year history. The program pays homage to PBT’s commitment to giving life to the classical tradition, nurturing new ideas and inspiring Pittsburgh’s communities throughout the decades. The mixed repertory program features three PBT favorite works from the past and two new world premieres. Spring Mix: 5 for 55 will take place at the August Wilson African American Cultural Center April 4-6, 2025.
The program includes George Balanchine’s sumptuous Emeralds, the return of Jorma Elo’s fast-paced 1st Flash, Dwight Rhoden’s passionate Ave Maria, and two newly choreographed world premieres: the primal The Rite of Spring by PBT choreographer-in-residence and former soloist William Moore and the joyful Falling Forward by acclaimed choreographer Caili Quan.
