As colorful as it is kinetic, Helen Pickett’s Petal is an electrifying, hopeful work inspired by the radiant hues of gerbera daisies. Choreographed in 2008, this timeless ballet explores the intimacy of human touch and our fundamental need for connection.
The restaging of Petal was made possible in part through the support of Aspen Santa Fe Ballet Fund.
