Brooklyn Center for the Performing Arts at Brooklyn College welcomes Ballet-théâtre atlantique du Canada, performing the New York City premiere of their full-length contemporary ballet, Don Juan, on Sunday, March 22, 2009 at 2pm. Set to the music of George Gershwin and featuring costumes by Denis Lavoie (who created Mick Jagger’s wardrobe for the Voodoo Lounge tour), the piece takes a fresh and playful look at the legend of history’s most infamous lover.
“Ballet art can and should encompass theatre with high spiritual and emotive potential,” says Artistic Director Igor Dobrovolskiy. “The focus is not the display of technique by the use of technique – sometimes simple, sometimes complex – for the purpose of narration, of revealing a character. I want dancers who are willing to involve their heart, mind and soul in the process.” About Don Juan, Mr. Dobrovolskiy commented “It’s a Broadway-flavored ballet, very bright, very dynamic, full of fantasy, improbably characters and situations and wild nightmares. I wanted a lightness and freedom of movement and sense of fun for this production, and (Gershwin’s) work fit perfectly.”
Founded in 2002 by Susan Chalmers-Gauvin, CEO, and Artistic Director Igor Dobrovolskiy, Ballet-théâtre atlantique du Canada presents a diverse collection of original full-length narrative ballets and short works which explore contemporary themes within the classical genre. Each work is conceived and choreographed by Mr. Dobrovolskiy. Based in Moncton, New Brunswick, the Company premieres a new original full-length production each season, with titles including King Lear, Don Juan, Amadeus, Phantom of the Opera, Les Portes Tournantes, Merlin, and Figaro.
Ballet-théâtre atlantique du Canada is Atlantic Canada’s only professional ballet company, and the artists of the Company are classically-trained soloists from Canada and around the world. The Company serves the four eastern provinces of Canada: New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia and Newfoundland & Labrador and also tour nationally and internationally, serving as cultural ambassador for its home region.
Igor Dobrovolskiy (Founding Artistic Director/Choreographer) is a graduate of the Kiev State Ballet Academy and earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts in pedagogy of ballet dance and choreography from the Kiev National University of the Arts. He began his professional dance career with the State Theatre of Opera and Ballet for Children and Youth in Kiev, Ukraine. His vocation has taken him across Europe, to Ecuador and finally to Atlantic Canada where he co-founded Atlantic Ballet Theatre of Canada with Susan Chalmers-Gauvin in 2001.
The artistic team for Don Juan includes Igor Dobrovolskiy (choreography), Denis Lavoie (costume design), Pierre Lavoie (lighting design), and Sharon Pollock (dramaturgy), with music by George Gershwin.
Don Juan is the final of four international dance performances that make up Brooklyn Center’s 2008-09 World of Dance series.
