“CHARLESTON, S.C., MAY 25-JUNE 10 The New York City Ballet principal Sara Mearns and the choreographer Jodi Melnick may come from different worlds — classical ballet and postmodern dance — but they share a similar dedication to discovery, to uncovering layers of artistry new to their audiences and themselves. That curiosity comes through in New Bodies, Ms. Melnick’s intimate work for Ms. Mearns and her fellow City Ballet dancers Jared Angle and Gretchen Smith. Presented June 7-10, it should be a highlight of this year’s Spoleto offerings, which open with Miami City Ballet’s Celebration: The Art of the Pas de Deux, a tribute to Jerome Robbins. spoletousa.org”
