Verb Ballets will present a special evening to honor Ian Horvath’s impact on dance which includes two Horvath ballets, excerpts from a documentary celebrating his life, and the premiere of a new ballet by Kay Eichman.
Verb Ballets, Northeast Ohio’s premiere contemporary ballet company, celebrates the life and work of Ian Horvath (1943-1990) on February 9, 2019 in an evening titled Dance Legacy: Celebrating the Life of Ian Horvath. The three-part performance will honor Horvath’s impact on dance in Cleveland and will recognize his work as an AIDS advocate. Tragically, he lost his battle to AIDS at the age of 46.
His legacy will live on through this special evening of dance at the Breen Center for the Performing Arts, which includes two Horvath ballets beloved by Cleveland and international audiences, excerpts from a documentary celebrating Horvath’s life, and the premiere of a new ballet by Kay Eichman, a former dancer with Cleveland Ballet. A pre-show panel on stage at 7:15 pm will discuss the AIDS epidemic and its impact on a generation of Cleveland dancers, who were lost to the disease. This performance is generously supported by the Cleveland Foundation.
Single tickets are $10-$35. Student ticket discount are available.
