Enter a dream drawn from the pages of “One Thousand and One Nights,” as this retelling of “Scheherazade” unfolds with bodies in motion. Dancers propel audiences into a luminescent world, their movements pulsing with urgency and grace. Visionary choreographer Alonzo King conjures a spellbinding realm, weaving Middle Eastern dance influences into a modern ballet language that feels both ancient and strikingly new. The performers’ raw power, fluidity and breathtaking athleticism command the stage, one mesmerizing moment at a time.
