Frank Ohman's "Adventures in Ballet"

Frank Ohman's New York Dance Theatre and Ohman School of Ballet will present this unique program of ballet and balletic dance to a broad range of musical genres:  classical, contemporary, jazz, Broadway and world music will all be represented.  Guest artists include DaVon Doane of Dance Theatre of Harlem, Nicole Loizides of MOMIX, and internationally acclaimed pianist Pablo Lavandera, artist-in-residence at Stony Brook University.  FARMINGVILLE RESIDENT  DANIELLE LICHTENBERGER will be performing with the company and has also choreographed a piece for the show.  The title "Adventures in Ballet" reflects the idea that this classic art form is not just about story ballets and classical music exclusively, but that it can be expressed in different modes and in abstract ballets.  The music of Bach, Ravel, Liszt, Marvin Hamlisch, Richard Rodgers, Philip Glass and others (including original music by Long Island musicians) will round out this program of dance for an audience of all ages.  Come experience ballet as you never have before.
