#Repost @boulder_ballet : ASCENDING RECAP // ✨ Lark Ascending ✨

This world premiere of “Lark Ascending” soared with breathtaking beauty and emotion. Set to Ralph Vaughan Williams’ iconic score, performed live by Damien Krzyzek (piano) and Robyn Julyan (violin), the ballet captures the delicate, transformative moments of growth and perseverance. Stunningly enhanced by the costumes of Erica Johnston, the performance was a true celebration of resilience, grace, and artistic flight. 🩰✨

IN PROCESS // a glimpse into costume designer Erica Johnston (@edjohnst)’s process of designing and building all-new costumes for Laura Halzack’s newest work, Verve. 🪡🧵

Inspired by Rothko’s iconic color-blocked paintings, these designs were born from a deep collaboration between Erica and Laura. Verve celebrates the vibrancy of life in all its different shades, and these costumes add a new layer of brilliance. We are looking forward to sharing those shades with you in performance next month. 🩷❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜
