On July 22, 2018, I was privileged to attend the singular showing of A Man of Dance/Vincent Warren, at the Walter Reade Theater at Lincoln Center. This film is a celebration of the life of Vincent Warren (1938 - 2017) written and directed by Marie Brodeur.

From dancing under the baton of Igor Stravinsky, having a passionate love affair with celebrated poet Frank O'Hara, and appearing as lead dancer in the masterpiece Pas de deux by the great filmmaker Norman McLaren, Vincent Warren touched hands with history. His is a tale worth telling, the story of a man and the road he travelled, recounted in a documentary that by extension celebrates important and compelling moments of our recent history.

Colorado Ballet Artistic Director Gil Boggs announced the 2018/2019 season today, which will feature five productions at the Ellie Caulkins Opera House, a first since 2007. This season's productions will include Sleeping Beauty, the 58th annual production of The Nutcracker, a Colorado Ballet premiere of The Wizard of Oz, Tour de Force—a collaboration with Wonderbound and Cleo Parker Robinson Dance companies—and conclude with Ballet Masterworks, featuring Carmina Burana.
