Peter Boal has completed his first season running Seattle’s Pacific Northwest Ballet. “Boal has brought youthful energy to the company, as well as a dance bag full of new-to-PNB works, many chosen from choreographers for whom Boal himself danced. Among the dancers, new faces are emerging from the corps de ballet as future stars, while the veterans are dancing with renewed vigor. And that energy isn’t just up on the stage: People are talking about PNB, in a way that they haven’t for a long time.”
