Renown NYC Dance Performing Arts Company, The Francesca Harper Project, joins with GVSU faculty and students in a performance of Beethoven’s only work for the ballet stage: Creatures of Prometheus. Francesca Harper’s pairs the scope of Beethoven’s original score (1801), with her interpretation of the classical ballet’s, creation myth. Her choreography is performed to full orchestra. Creatures of Prometheus finds Harper’s dancers evoking an eternal struggle; to find balance in a life lived at the edge of peril. Contemporary Ballet is used here to illustrate forces natural and primordial, elegant and dramatic.
