It&#8217;s a non-narrative work that is accompanied by the music of Alexander Glazunov. The ballet highlights the stunning classical technique of Boulder Ballet&#8217;s dancers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201c<\/span>Sun and Steel\u201d is a powerful contemporary work choreographed by Boulder Ballet&#8217;s Artistic Director, Ben Needham-Wood. Inspired by the writings of Japanese author Yukio Mishima, this work explores the connection between the body and the spirit. Where does the edge of your flesh meet the edge of your soul? The work premiered as a quartet at the historic Chautauqua Auditorium in Boulder, Colorado, just this past fall, and will be expanded into a full company work especially for the Grand County audience.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Tickets can be purchased by calling the Rocky Mountain Repertory Theatre administrative office at 970-627-5087 or by going to the Rocky Mountain Repertory Theatre website,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.rockymountainrep.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.rockymountainrep.com<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0This unique cultural event is one not to be missed!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-4976\" src=\"https:\/\/www.visitgrandcounty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Boulder-Ballet-8x11-Print-233x300.jpeg\" alt=\"Promotional poster for a boulder ballet performance at rocky mountain repertory on april 27th at 7:30 pm.\" width=\"233\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.visitgrandcounty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Boulder-Ballet-8x11-Print-233x300.jpeg 233w, https:\/\/www.visitgrandcounty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Boulder-Ballet-8x11-Print-622x800.jpeg 622w, https:\/\/www.visitgrandcounty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Boulder-Ballet-8x11-Print-350x450.jpeg 350w, https:\/\/www.visitgrandcounty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Boulder-Ballet-8x11-Print-467x600.jpeg 467w, https:\/\/www.visitgrandcounty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Boulder-Ballet-8x11-Print-311x400.jpeg 311w, https:\/\/www.visitgrandcounty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Boulder-Ballet-8x11-Print.jpeg 630w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 233px) 100vw, 233px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>April 3, 2024 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE From: Jennifer Mace, Rocky Mountain Repertory Theatre, 970-627-5087 Re:\u00a0\u00a0Rocky Mountain Repertory Theatre will host the Boulder Ballet April 27th!
