The Joyce Theater Foundation in association with the Argyros Performing Arts Center brings three of the biggest talents from American Ballet Theatre downtown for Neo, a world premiere digital duet. ABT Principal Dancers (and best friends) James Whiteside and Isabella Boylston take on their first post-quarantine collaboration in the brand-new choreography from ABT Artist in Residence Alexei Ratmansky. Filmed on stage at The Joyce Theater with live musical accompaniment, the tailor-made work for two begins its free 30-day streaming engagement on Monday, May 17 at www.Joyce.org. "Dancing Dialogues," a virtual post-stream discussion with the artists, moderated by Tony Award-winning director/choreographer and Joyce Theater Trustee Rob Ashford, about the creation of Neo immediately follows the May 17 debut.
