Fresh from the H.H. Unofficial Information Exchange (UIEX) tickertape: This year's Innovation Initiative showcase will be at the Joyce Theater on Saturday, Sept. 17th at 7:00 pm. Choreographers are Marcelo Gomes, Gemma Bond, Mikhail Ilyin, and Zhong-Jing Fang.
Haglund has no idea why tickets aren't on sale on the website yet. Let's all call the Joyce tomorrow and ask: 212-242-0800.
Update 9/2
The folks at the Joyce Theater confirmed that the performance will take place, but said that ABT is simply renting the theater and is doing its own ticketing from its offices (212-477-3030). Sounds suspiciously like a potentially expensive fundraiser.
Oh well . . .
