Repertory by Amy Seiwert

Amy Seiwert is widely regarded as one of the most exciting ballet choreographers today. Seiwert is nationally known for creating works that start with a ballet base but utilize creation techniques more common in modern dance.

"Seiwert is quite possibly the Bay Area's most original dance thinker, taking what some consider a dead
language and using it as a 21st-century lingo to tell us something about who we are." - Rita Felciano,
San Francisco Bay Guardian
