✨ Show Description
This spring, Harvard Ballet Company is proud to present Ephemera at the Harvard Dance Center. This production will explore the joy, vulnerability, and profound humanity found in impermanence. Ephemera blends the two definitions of its title: the transient, impermanent nature of beauty and its unexpected power to evoke nostalgia. Through classical and contemporary choreography, Ephemera will offer Harvard glimpses into the behind-the-scenes lives of dancers and celebrate ballet as an art form that, while transient, leaves an indelible mark.
Directed by: Emma Nagler & Olivia Callander
Produced by: Ava Winer & Melinda Wang
Ephemera is presented as part of the Spring 2025 Student-Led Dance Group Residency, supported by the Office for the Arts at Harvard Dance Program.
