Gregory Hancock Dance Theatre

Gregory Hancock Dance Theatre opens its 2016-2107 performance season with the World Premiere of THE VIOLIN UNDER THE BED, Mr. Hancock’s newest ballet.  His most intensely personal piece to date, THE VIOLIN UNDER THE BED honors the mother who inspired and sustained him throughout her lifetime.  This world premiere is both a joyful and poignant tribute to the sacrifice, strength, and grace of his late mother and manifests Mr. Hancock’s desire to transmute grief and loss into light, humor, and beauty.

Along with this new work will be The Tarkington premiere and highly-anticipated return of THE SCARLET LETTER.  Mr. Hancock’s adaptation of this literary classic analogically tells the story of the legendary Marilyn Monroe and her struggles with the cruel and bitter side of Hollywood glamour.  A bold and contemporary portrayal, THE SCARLET LETTER presents Marilyn as an allegory, a symbolic representation of beauty turned inside out.
