Article Excerpt
Who's the new guy at Oregon Ballet Theatre? Which Italian fashion house has designs on Aspen Santa Fe Ballet? How many famous choreographers taught Dayton Contemporary Dance Company how to fly? Does Nashville Ballet have a snake fetish? And what's the story with that massive tango festival in Argentina? DANCE MAGAZINE'S Fall Preview answers these questions and offers recommendations on what look to be some of this season's best bets (based on information available at press time), while our Calendar gives viewers information on buying tickets and seeing shows worldwide. This year we've also included a section on touring companies that will be stopping at multiple venues this fall. If you're looking for The Nutcracker, check back in December for our extensive holiday guide. And as always, check our online calendar for monthly event updates.--Heather Wisner, Special Section Editor
