STREAMING in our Virtual
Screening Room starting October
21st at 10 AM
General Admission $8
The Cinema Arts Centre is pleased
to offer a special online series of films and conversations from the American documentarian
Frederick Wiseman. Ballet is the
first installment in this three-week series leading up to our online run of
Wiseman’s latest picture, City Hall.
BALLET is a film about the American
Ballet Theatre and shows choreographers, ballet masters and mistresses working
with principle dancers, soloists and the corps de ballet as well as the
administration and fund raising aspects of the Company. (1995, USA, 170 min, English | dir. Frederick
Wiseman)
The film is followed by a conversation between Wiseman and film-maker Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi, Oscar-winning co-director of Free Solo.
BALLET, in its characteristic
unadorned, unsentimentalized manner, remains unique, and its portrait of ballet
dancers at work has no parallel. – Alan M. Kriegsman, The Washington Post
