WINTER WEATHER - American ballet theatre
2020 was shit. As such, choreographer Gemma Bond and American Ballet Theatre's principle dancers Devon Teuscher and Cory Stearns set out to create a festive dance-on-film performance to bring a little bit of joy as we entered 2021. WINTER WEATHER is the result, an escapist interlude inspired by the golden era of Hollywood dance spectaculars.
“Downton Abbey meets Gene Kelly and Vera Ellen…, Winter Weather is so enjoyable because it is so relatable. Although nobody has ever mistaken most of us for Ginger Rogers or Fred Astaire, we can relate to these two New Year’s Eve partygoers. Rather than depict the couple, however, at the crescendo of a crowded holiday celebration, Casey and Bond chose to invite us to share this intimate moment in the otherwise abandoned rooms of The Explorers Club.” — The Ballet Herald
