New Ballet Director Manuel Gross Brings Fresh Vision to Theater Krefeld
Manuel Gross, the new ballet director at the Theater Krefeld, has ambitious plans to diversify the company's repertoire and engage with the free dance scene. Gross, a trained dancer with extensive performance experience, aims to introduce innovative multimedia elements and explore new narrative structures in contemporary dance.
Gross' three-year plan includes inviting guest choreographers to the Gemeinschaftstheater am Niederrhein, who will bring fresh perspectives and integrate multimedia elements into their works. While the names of these choreographers are yet to be announced, their contributions promise to enrich the company's repertoire.
Gross' vision extends beyond the stage. He aims to have dancers adapt to different styles and react to various dancer types within the company. This adaptability will be nurtured through a gradual transition process that builds on existing potential without abandoning the classical ballet style.
The upcoming season will feature studio performances in November and December, showcasing choreographies by Yuri Hamano and Alessandro Borghesani under the title 'Black Sheep / Sogni D'oro'. The current season's program includes veteran Robert North's choreographies for 'Carmen', 'Surprise', and 'Danced Images'.
Manuel Gross' tenure as ballet director at the Theater Krefeld promises an exciting journey of transformation and diversification. With a focus on adaptability, innovation, and a gradual transition process, Gross aims to bring fresh energy and diverse styles to the ballet company over the next three years, ensuring a vibrant future for the art form.
