February 7 – 9, 2014 Following the sensational reception to the The Hamburg Ballett’s performances of John Neumeier’s inspired interpretation of The Little Mermaidin February 2013, the Center announces the addition of The Hamburg Ballett to next season’s recently announced Dance Series with the American premiere of Neumeier’s Liliom. Neumeier, the company’s director and chief choreographer, based his work on Ferenc Molnár’s play of the same name, which was also the inspiration for Rogers and Hammerstein’s Broadway classic, Carousel. The music for the ballet is an award-winning original score by the Academy Award®-winning composer Michel Legrand. |
“We are delighted that The Hamburg Ballett will return for our 2013 – 2014 International Dance Season
with the American premiere of Liliom, a wonderful new work by John Neumeier,” said Judy Morr,
executive vice president of Segerstrom Center for the Arts. “Mr. Neumeier’s choreography is elegant and
profound, and it’s our absolute privilege to present this work for the first time in this country to Center
audiences.”
