MOMIX's newest full-length piece, Botanica, brings spring to Aspen early this year. Inspired by the mysterious, sensual world of flowers and plants, Botanica invites the outdoors in with magnificent props, costumes and stage design and a beautiful score layered with birdsongs and Vivaldi's masterwork, "Four Seasons". Moses Pendleton's company of dancer-illusionists has been celebrated worldwide for their ability to conjure up a universe of surrealistic images using props, light, shadow, humor and the human body. Celebrate the magical beauty of the seasons with MOMIX's stunning new piece, Botanica.
“Eye-popping and mind-boggling . . . everything looks magical.”

Back home in Aspen this February, Aspen Santa Fe Ballet premieres a new ballet by the gifted young choreographer Norbert De La Cruz III. A recent graduate of Juilliard's dance program, De La Cruz was discovered by ASFB Artistic Director Tom Mossbrucker during last year's New York auditions. Promising to be a fresh new voice in the choreographic world, don't miss this young talent as he begins his rise. Also on the program is Jorma Elo's lush and dramatic work - Over Glow and one of ASFB's signature pieces, Nicolo Fonte's enduring ballet, Left Unsaid.
“Stark, sleek, and chock-full of moves that skirt the edges of contemporary movement.”
– Karen Campbell, The Boston Globe
