Prologue: A Mixed Bill Program
Syracuse City Ballet

Community Folk Art Center
805 E. Genesee St., Syracuse

Join us for a compelling lineup of new works curated by Artistic Director Jayson Douglas. The program's centerpiece, "Pulsing," which premiered in February 2024 with the Minnesota Ballet, offers a profound exploration of the different stages of depression, providing the audience with an intimate look inside someone's head. This ballet aims to raise awareness about the importance of mental health and wellness in Americans' lives and to celebrate recovery from mental illness.

The program will also feature a world premiere by Jayson Douglas himself, alongside "Saturn," which premiered in June 2022 with NIJAD Dance Artists. This diverse lineup promises to deliver an impactful and thought-provoking experience for all attendees.
