Time, Forward! Commissioned and performed by American Repertory BalletThe Art of Dance/ The Diaghilev Era: Ballet Reconstructions at The Jane Voorhees Zimmerli Art Museum at Rutgers University, 71 Hamilton Street, New Brunswick, NJTime, Forward!, choreographed to music by Georgy Sviridov, was inspired by the traveling performances of the Russian group the Blue Blouse. Established after the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917, the group's performances were described as “living newspapers” and derived inspiration from music hall revues, circus acts, and fairground shows but used them to forge a new form of theater that expressed the reality of revolutionary social life through the body.
