Former Paris Opera Ballet Artistic Director Benjamin Millepied, who choreographed the movie Black Swan, founded the L.A. Dance Project, an artist collective, in 2012 with composers Nico Muhly and Nicholas Britell, art consultant Matthieu Humery, and producer Charles Fabius. The Project aims to make new work for a small group of dancers in collaboration with visual artists, musicians, and composers to perform in both traditional and unconventional spaces.
POST-SHOW TALK: Join us after the January 26 performance for a conversation with the artists.

Millepied’s full-time return to Los Angeles has injected a new energy into this Downtown L.A. ensemble. The company’s approach to collaborative creation—integrating composers, musicians, and visual artists into the process—harkens back to the days of the Ballets Russes.
