Season 2007
Project One is a trilogy comprising of:
Ballet 1 — Phases
Choreographed by Justine Miles
This ballet, to the music of Glazanov
follows the phases that we go through
in the pursuit of happiness. The ballet
explores the emotions, moods and
feelings in both men and women in
their relationships and in life.
Ballet 2 — Primere Amore
Choreographed by Sharon Fernandez
Set to the traditional Spanish style music
of Ottmar Liebert, Matos-Rodriguez and
Astor Piazzolla, ‘Primere Amore’ is a
triangle love story involving three couples
different passages to falling in love.
One lustful, another passionately involved
and the third couple turbulent. We all
hold in our hearts the dream of one day
experiencing the floating sensation of
true love, of being completely happy.
Love is seeing each other as we are
meant to be seen, from the inside.
Ballet 3 — In Paradisum
Choreographed by Simon Hoy
In Paradisum is a narrative ballet that
attempts to put a human face to the
ongoing tragedy that is the current
situation in Iraq. With music by Faure
and Tchiakovsky the ballet tells the story
of Naijida, a beautiful young Iraqi woman
and Benjamin an American working
in Iraq. In Paradisum presents both a
provocative and engaging display of
human responses to such tragedy.
In the face of confusion it tries to define
plausible gestures and moods that
transcend national borders and disasters -
and in the end to defy words.
