Think On These Things is the newest original contemporary ballet coming to the Basile Westfield Playhouse, 220 N. Union St., Westfield, at the end of April.
Radiance Dance Company’s artistic director, Hannah Noel Winkler, has created a ballet performed by an all-female cast of six, some new to the company for this performance. The production is based upon Philippians 4:8. The ballet is structured in eight sections, each with dances inspired by the themes of Truth, Honor, Justice, Purity, Loveliness, Favor, Excellence, and Praise.
Expect a wide variety of choreography which is beautiful and energetic, captivating in its artistry. The last section includes a live singer on stage, Jonah Ferguson.
In addition, the backdrops and lobby display of original artwork are based on the Victorian language of flowers, each flower corresponding with the eight themes, having been created by the design director.
