Profiles

Abigail Brent stands onstage in sus-sous onstage. She holds her arms out to the side, bent at the elbows like a mechanical doll and kisses the air. She wears a red white and blue velvet jacket and short skirt, with a star-spangled cumberband, pink tights, pointe shoes and red crown. She also has red felt circles glued onto her cheeks. Young dancers sit on the floor and watch her dance.

Jonathan Klein holds Emily Hayes up in the air as she arches back, tucking her left leg into passé as she bends her right knee around his ribcage. She holds her hands close to her collarbone and looks out over her right shoulder. Hayes wears a long, blue polka-dotted dress with a large slit up the middle, a dark leotard underneath and pink pointe shoes. Klein wears a dark jacket and white tights.

Kirsten Evans

Seth Orza performs in a tavern scene from the ballet Don Quizote. He jumps straight up, his right leg in passé back, and holds his right arm up and places his left hand on his left hip. He looks out over his left shoulder and smiles. Orza wears a white peasant blouse, short gray sleeveless vest, black cumberbund, red knickers and white tights and ballet slippers. A long table full of food is in the background, and other dancers sit and mill about. The set backdrop shows a Spanish city.
