Called “fresh and forward-thinking” by The Washington Post, Trey McIntyre uses classical ballet technique as a departure point to create exuberant dances that convey the emotion and grace of life’s journey. McIntyre is one of the most sought-after choreographers today, creating works for Stuttgart Ballet, American Ballet Theatre, New York City Ballet, and others as well as his own company. In its Maine premiere, his company of 11 exquisite dancers bring McIntyre’s latest work inspired by the 1970s television special, “Free to be You…and Me,” a piece crafted on the program’s messages of individuality, tolerance,
and comfort with one’s identity.
