PARIS/FRANCE: It caused a shock wave in the world of ballet which was looking for a successor to George Balanchine and to Jerome Robbins. For the third consecutive season,Benjamin Millepied, who took on this double inheritance, invents his own and unique style, returning to Théâtre du Châtelet with his collective of creators: a collective who puts into question our perception of what dance can represent today. Presentation 8. – 11. April
. 2015

Benjamin Millepied is new balletchief at Paris Opera Ballet, in addition he is presenting LA Dance project at Theatre du Chatelet. An interesting combination, giving the audience the possibility to enjoy several and eventually also different sides of an interesting Dance personality.
