A ballet dancer from the Forsythe Programme is jumping in a pas de chat, seemingly floating over a dark background lit only by an exciting disco ball. He's smiling and wearing a textured black and white shirt and black shorts.

A new work and two classics by William Forsythe

An illustration from My First Ballet: Swan Lake. Siegfried is holding Odette who is leaning forward while on pointe. Siegfried is wearing a black top and light tights and Odette is wearing a cream tutu and headdress. Both are smiling. Odile is shown behind them on pointe shoes wearing a black tutu. In the distance we see four dancers playing the cygnets and holding each other's arms in a line. The background shows two large trees over a beautiful starry sky.
