Rhapsody in Blue (For New York) by Caleb Teicher & Company

For almost a century, composer George Gershwin’s “Rhapsody in Blue” has served as one of the most iconic musical portraits of New York City. To support the spirit of New York at a time when it is struggling, choreographer Caleb Teicher will assemble a small ensemble of dancers including LaTasha Barnes, Nathan Bugh, Gaby Cook, Abdiel Jacobsen, Jennifer Jones, and Macy Sullivan to create a new work that captures New York City in all its beauty and peril. When the work premieres acclaimed pianist and composer Conrad Tao will join the cast performing live. Teicher and Tao’s last collaboration, the Works & Process-commissioned More Forever, was recognized among The New York Times’ “Best of 2018,” and in 2019 was awarded a Bessie Award.
