<p>The Wadsworth will present <em>Tell Me Where It Comes From</em>, a new interdisciplinary performance created by choreographer Emily Coates with director Ain Gordon and collaborators. Performer Derek Lucci will animate archival materials, movement, and spoken text to explore George Balanchine’s brief 1933 connection to Hartford and the early development of American ballet. The performance will bring together dance, theater, music, and historical research to illuminate the artistic influences that shape creative work.</p><p><br></p>
