These include the stories of romantic love told through balletic duets in Jerome Robbins’ In The Night (1970), the speed and precision of William Forsythe’s Blake Works I (2016), and the pulsing mass of the hive mind in Crystal Pite’s The Seasons’ Canon (2016). Much has been written on William Forsythe as one of Esplanade’s da:ns focus figures for 2019 ( Chan Sze Wei , Bernice Lee ).
