Coates and her collaborators Ain Gordon, Derek Lucci, Charles Burnham, Melvin Chen, Krista Smith, Harriet Jung and Reid Bartelme, and Henry Seth collage forgotten aspects of Balanchine’s legacy, reanimating unanswered letters, old photographs and music exercises, lost ballets, early muses, and more.
