American Contemporary Ballet Jazz Unites Big Band with an Experiential Evening

March 12, 2024 By Taylor Winters In American Contemporary Ballet, Review No Comments

It’s no surprise that American Contemporary Ballet is our favorite dance company we’ve experienced, as we’ve sung their praises in the past with The Nutcracker Suite, Burlesque and Inferno, Homecoming, and Astaire Dances.

Ding. The elevator door opens to an unfinished space. On the sixth floor of an LA skyrise. Plastic sheeting divides a construction zone from a makeshift office.
