Two-year-old ballet company Morphoses is still a work in progress, but that's a good thing. The only given is that artistic director Christopher Wheeldon's ballets are finely crafted watercolors come to life. This season, Wheeldon premieres a new work set to Rachmaninoff's Suites for Two Pianos and brings back Continuum, one of his signature György Ligeti ballets; his Commedia features costumes by Isabel and Rueben Toledo, and the company also performs Stravinsky's knockabout Pulcinella. Filling out the program are Tim Harbour's untitled dance, Alexei Ratmansky's Bolero, and Lightfood Léon's reinterpretation of the duet Softly As I Leave You.
