This week we recap Duane's visit to Kokomo for the High Limit Series event, where our friend Rico Abreu took the checkered flag at the finish line over Justin Peck. Unfortunately the biggest news out of Kokomo wasn't the amazing finish but the topic of smart watches as Rico was visibly wearing one in victory lane. We talk about the social media swarm that ensued over the topic of smart watches. We also talk about Duane's AFCS weekend, T-Mac getting back to victory lane (twice) and other racing news from the area!

Adriana Pierce is a dancer, choreographer, and director based in New York City, and she joined the studio to talk about her work elevating queer artists in ballet, creating community, and her career in classical ballet as well as musical theater! Adriana is the founder of Queer the Ballet, an initiative with the mission to widen the scope of classical ballet by producing queer work by queer dance artists. Queer the Ballet says on its website that it seeks to “queer” our ballet spaces and explore choreography often absent from ballet stages. After training at School of American Ballet, Adriana began her dancing career with New York City Ballet and Miami City Ballet before realizing another dream of hers - working in Broadway, film and tv! She appeared in the 2018 Broadway revival of Carousel, in Steven Spielberg's 2021 West Side Story film, and in the 2019 limited series on FX, Fosse/Verdon. She's currently the associate director and associate choreographer for Justin Peck's “Illinoise" on Broadway. Adriana's other choreographic work features movement and partnering that allows dancers of all genders equal agency, dismantling the traditional gender dynamics of dance. Her choreography has been performed by American Ballet Theatre, Carolina Ballet, Columbia Ballet Collaborative, Ashley Bouder Project, and more. She's also completed residencies with Center for Ballet and the Arts at NYU and Bridge Street Theatre, and she was recognized by Dance Magazine as one of 25 to watch in 2022.

[REBROADCAST FROM MARCH 19TH, 2024] "Illinoise" is a new dance adaptation of the seminal Sufjan Stevens album, with a story by Tony-winning choreographer Justin Peck and Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Jackie Sibblies Drury. Drury and Peck, who also directed and choreographed the production, join us.
Sufjan Stevens' 2005 concept album “Illinois” enjoys cult status for its lush orchestrations and inventive lyrics. Tony Award-winner and Resident Choreographer of the New York City Ballet, Justin Peck, has transformed the album, with Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright of 2018's “Fairview” Jackie Sibblies Drury, into a full-length theatrical performance that blends dance, theater, live music and storytelling into a breathtakingly emotional coming-of-age journey. “Illinoise” was presented at the Bard Fisher Center in summer of 2023 as a SummerScape commission. The Bard staging and the off-Broadway production at Park Avenue Armory earlier this year were sold out, highly praised, and “Illinoise” transferred to the St. James Theatre on Broadway this month. Opening night was April 24 and the limited engagement is scheduled to end on August 10. This morning, it was announced that “Illinoise” has been nominated for 4 Tony Awards.
Justin Peck is a celebrated choreographer who loves Sufjan Stevens's music. He loves it so much that he's collaborated with the musician twice. Their latest project is a Broadway dance musical called “Illinoise,” which is based on Sufjan's seminal album “Illinois.” Justin joins guest host Talia Schlanger to tell us what the album means to him and how he transformed it into a theatre-dance production.
"Illinoise" is a new dance adaptation of the seminal Sufjan Stevens album, with a story by Tony-winning choreographer Justin Peck and Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Jackie Sibblies Drury. The show runs at Park Avenue Armory through March 26, then transfers to Broadway starting April 24. Drury and Peck, who also directed and choreographed the production, join us.

Today we are joined by critic, dance scholar, and former chief dance critic to the New York Times, Alastair Macaulay. We talk with Alastair about the incredible legacy of George Balanchine's 'Serenade'. Originally choreographed in 1934 for students at the School Of American Ballet, 'Serenade' has gone on to become one of the most beloved works of the 20th century. Alastair takes us through the history of the ballet, including the myths surrounding its creation, the many changes it has gone through over the years, and why we should really all be pronouncing it 'Seren-AYDE'.THIS EPISODE'S SPONSORS:Energetiks specialize in creating sustainable, world class dancewear for the stars of tomorrow.

On this Friday show we'll get into Justin Peck's scary crash last night and why this should be a wake up call for the industry. We've also got Thursday results, what to watch this weekend, and more.
On Wednesday's show: Drama dominates the final days of the regular Texas Legislative session. Why a House committee is investigating Attorney General Ken Paxton, and why he's calling for House Speaker Dade Phelan to resign. Plus, a late night move by the Texas Senate would make voting illegally a felony. We discuss those stories and other developments in politics in our weekly roundup. Also this hour: Houston has had a reputation for tearing things down to build something new. However, that's changing. We learn how developers are using state and federal tax credits to save and repurpose buildings with character and history. And choreographer Justin Peck of the New York City Ballet explains how the Twilight Epiphany Skyspace sculpture at Rice University inspired a new work called Under the Folding Sky that's making its world premiere as a part of a Houston Ballet performance the next two weeks. Peck also discusses his work choreographing the dance scenes in Steven Spielberg's 2021 remake of West Side Story.
Today on 'Conversations On Dance', we are joined by choreographer Justin Peck to discuss his new work for Houston Ballet 'Under the Folding Sky'. Justin talks about how seeing the art work of James Turrell in Houston provided a jumping off point, how he's waited for almost a decade to use the ballet's Phillip Glass score and what it's been like to explore an epic scale of dance in this work for 24 artists. If you are in the Houston area, you can purchase tickets to see Justin's new work on houstonballet.org. 'Under the Folding Sky' runs on the 'Divergence' program alongside works by Aszure Barton and Stanton Welch from May 25th to June 4th.
