Ballet Memphis, the noted touring company that the Ford Foundation has hailed as a "national treasure," comes to the Carpenter Performing Arts Center at CSULB. One exciting portion of the program finds these talented, boundary-testing dancers performing to six of music legend Roy Orbison's most popular songs for In Dreams. The show also includes S'epanouir, in which we witness a woman's transition from crisis to joy with a little help from her friends. It's original, thought-provoking works such as these that have made Ballet Memphis a force in contemporary ballet today.

Not as much a Ballet Troup as a Modern Dance Troup. Wanted to see more "Ballet" & the music accompaniment for most pieces was not my cup of tea. The 1st & last numbers were the only ones I thought worthwhile
