This rather beautiful modern ballet is from the choreographer Alonzo King. His Scheherazade is a re-envisioning of the ancient collection of Persian, Sanskrit, and Arabic stories of 1,001 Nights.
The dancers of LINES Ballet, Alonzo King’s company, present a vision of the intimate transformative potential these stories possess. No music credit but vaguely based on Scheherazade by Rimsky-Korsakov and others, less identifiable.
