Brooklyn Ballet's Debut Home Season at The Performance Space at The Schermerhorn features a world premier hip hop/ballet mix by Artistic Director Lynn Parkerson plus a seminal work by George Balanchine. The program also includes reconstructions of period dances by Thomas Baird (baroque dance) and Robert Atwood and Claudia Jeschke (1860's pre-romantic dances).
