Journey by foot: Keith Lee now calls central Virginia home, but his teaching and choreography work began at New York’s storied High School of Performing Arts, and was followed by decades of dance artistry everywhere from the American Ballet Theatre to Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater. As artist laureate, resident choreographer, and director of diversity and inclusion at the Charlottesville Ballet, he offers local access to the world premiere of his newest piece, And the VIII Journeyed. The virtual program includes a screening of a mini documentary that celebrates Lee and his career, as well as a panel discussion with others in the film.
Beginning 5/1, Free, 2pm. charlottesvilleballet.org.
