ABT’s Melvin Lawovi Is Entering His Choreographer Era 

Rebecca Corey

In grayscale: Isabella Kinch, Larkin Miller, and David Dawson are shown rehearsing a lift. Kinch, wearing a tank leotard with pointe shoes and tights cut at mid thigh, kneels on Miller's shoulder, one leg extended behind her in an arabesque. She arches backward, her face turned toward the ceiling in profile. Miller, wearing a long-sleeved shirt and a bandana, supports her with his arms above his head - one holding her back and the other holding one of her hands. Dawson, wearing a black short-sleeved shirt, stands behind the duo, holding Kinch's other outstretched hand and looking up toward her.
