SOFT POWER

Two contemporary dancers pose against a wall, one balancing with a raised leg while the other crouches beneath in support.

Brooklyn Ballet’s SOFT POWER premieres bold new works, unexpected movement dialogues, and a dynamic mix of ballet, contemporary, and street styles.

Opening Night is a Benefit supporting Brooklyn Ballet’s nonprofit mission—fueling bold new choreography and expanding access to dance education and performance.
