The Women’s Choreography Project provides opportunities for female creators in a male-dominated field.
For the tenth year, the Women’s Choreography Project , produced by Avant Chamber Ballet , highlights new work by female choreographers. The performances will take place March 29-30 at 7:30 p.m. in Kurth Hall at Sammons Center for the Arts.
At ballet performances, the stage is full of women. In administrative offices and in leadership roles in the rehearsal hall, the world of ballet has been historically male-dominated. “I'm just very proud of all the amazing art that we have been able to bring to audiences that otherwise would not exist. It can make a huge impact on a career of a choreographer to get a commission like this and it's the stepping stone to larger works and building your resume of working with professional companies,” Puder said.Avant Chamber Ballet commissioned two new works for this year's Women's Choreography Project.
Skelton is from Littleton, Colorado, where she started her serious ballet training at Belliston Academy of Ballet, under the direction of Jeannine Belliston. Skelton attended summer courses at Pacific Northwest Ballet, School of American Ballet, and Boston Ballet and continued her training on scholarship in the Professional Division with Pacific Northwest Ballet. She danced as a company member with Nevada Ballet Theatre in Las Vegas, collaborating with Cirque du Soleil.
