Review: Barak Ballet at the Wallis: Like sculpture come to life onstage

Los Angeles Times

June 14, 2016

Imagine the fantastical possibilities and imagery — not to mention confusion — if figures in classical sculpture could suddenly move, breaking free of their frozen poses. This was one way to interpret “Tableaux Vivants,” a gorgeous new dance for Barak Ballet made by Nicolas Blanc.

“At the start of “Tableaux,” four couples shift from one linked-together pose to another, looking like draped figures from a Hellenic frieze. — Blanc, a Chicago-based ballet master, and coach with the Joffrey Ballet, has a gift for genuinely lyrical, beautifully curved and evocative movement.”

Laura Bleiberg, Los Angeles Times
