  • Valerie Roche ARAD Director Momix and the Omaha Ballet
    Celebrating 50 years of Dance The lights go down.The orchestra begins to play. Dancers appear and there’s magic on the stage. The Omaha Academy of Ballet, a dream by its founders for a school and a civic ballet company for Omaha, was realized by the gift of two remarkable people: Valerie Roche ARAD director of the school and the late Lee Lubbers S.J., of Creighton University. Lubbers served as Board President and production manager, while Roche choreographed, rehearsed and directed the students during their performances. The dream to have a ballet company for the city of Omaha had begun. Lubbers also hired Roche later that year to teach dance at the university. This decision helped establish the creation of a Fine and Performing Arts Department at Creighton. The Academy has thrived for 50 years, thanks to hundreds of volunteers, donors, instructors, parents and above all the students. Over the decades, the Academy has trained many dancers who have gone on to become members of professional dance companies such as: the American Ballet Theatre, Los Angeles Ballet, Houston Ballet, National Ballet, Dance Theatre of Harlem, San Francisco Ballet, Minnesota Dance Theatre, Denver Ballet, Momix and the Omaha Ballet. Our dancers have also reached beyond the United States to join: The Royal Winnipeg in Canada and the Frankfurt Ballet in Germany.

Running April 16th through 25th, 2015 at the intimate Newmark Theatre, IMPACT opens with a world premiere work by one of the most sought-after choreographers in dance right now: Princess Grace Fellowship winner Darrell Grand Moultrie. The piece will be set to music by acclaimed composer and Artistic Director of Portland’s fEARnoMUSIC, Kenji Bunch. Moultrie’s work brings an innate sense of timing and theatricality that defies categorization, as shown by past commissions from renowned ballet companies, as well as superstars like Savion Glover and Beyoncé. Referring to his approach as “genre jumping,” Moultrie explains that it is the residue from his unique background growing up in New York City, where he was exposed to so many dance forms and forced to respect them. He finds that classically trained dancers welcome this versatility. “Ballet dancers now are not just one thing anymore,” Moultrie explains. “They really want to explore!” Following Moultrie’s premiere, the IMPACT program celebrates founding OBT Resident Choreographer Dennis Spaight, with the return of Crayola to the OBT stage for the first time in nearly 2 decades.

  • HUBBARD STREET DANCE CHICAGO and FINAL BOW for YELLOWFACE PRESENT UNBOXED Three Short Works Reimagining the Nutcracker’S Tea Variation, May 10, 17 and 24, 2021
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Media Contact: Nick Harkin Carol Fox and Associates [email protected] HUBBARD STREET DANCE CHICAGO AND FINAL BOW FOR YELLOWFACE PRESENT UNBOXED Three Short Works Reimagining The Nutcracker’s Tea Variation, May 10, 17 and 24, 2021 Chicago, IL — Hubbard Street Dance (HSDC) in partnership with Final Bow for Yellowface presents Unboxed, three works that rewrite the future of a tradition. Unboxed features choreographers Yin Yue, Edwaard Liang, and Peter Chu using their voices and vocabularies to imagine their own versions of the Chinese Tea variation from The Nutcracker. These Asian and Asian-American dance-makers engaged in three-day workshops with Hubbard Street dancers exploring the questions: “What are the traditions we want to protect?” and “What do we want to leave behind?” Unboxed welcomes viewers to tear free from the confines of tradition and invites audiences to glimpse the promise of a future rewritten. HSDC is challenging what is known as canon, in this case, the Chinese Tea variation from The Nutcracker to ask, “Can a dance, only a minute long but fraught with stereotypes, exist within a more inclusive future?” Hubbard Street Dance Associate Artistic Director, Jessica Tong says “the idea for Unboxed was always about challenging conventions and stereotypes. But my main focus initially was really to create a fun way for Hubbard Street to interact with great choreographers while playfully researching this one-minute variation. I couldn't have foreseen how meaningful and timely this project would eventually become, as people of Asian descent in this country are now fighting more than ever for acceptance and visibility.” Founders of Final Bow for Yellowface Phil Chan and Georgina Pazcoguin share more about this partnership, "At a time when big ballet companies routinely revive orientalist ballets from a European perspective, they seldom include choreographers of Asian descent.
