“Avichai Scher is the latest in a succession of New York City Ballet Nutcracker princes (including Eliot Feld, Peter Boal, and Christopher d'Amboise) who became choreographers and/or company directors. For his first New York season, Scher offers two glossy world premieres. First is the ensemble piece Inner Voice, which is composed, sung, and danced by former NYCB member Genevieve Labean. Then it's the perfect pairing of ABT's Marcelo Gomes and NYCB's Sara Mearns for Utopia Variations. The other ballets include Mystery in the Wind, a throwback to the psychological ballets that were popular in the 1940s.”
