The pas de deux from Executive Artistic Director Rodney Gustafson’s Romeo and Juliet. The intricate movements and athleticism of (con)version by Kassandra Taylor Newberry; upbeat music of Lawrence Welk in Laurie Eisenhower’s vivacious Bubbles; and the virtuosic elegance of the pas de deux from Don Quixote.
