(338) Choreographer Omar Román De Jesús on his first work for Ballet Hispánico
On today's episode of 'Conversations On Dance', we are joined by choreographer, Omar Román De Jesús. Omar takes us through his early training in Puerto Rico, the leap of faith he took in moving to New York City and how his humble early choreographic beginnings have led to a Princess Grace Award and commissions from world renowned companies. Omar's first work for Ballet Hispanico will premiere at New York City Center this summer, with performances running June 1st through the 3rd, on a program featuring additional works by Pedro Ruiz, Michelle Manzanales and William Forsythe. Tickets can be purchased at nycitycenter.org.
