On Point(e): The Eugene Ballet's Boss

baumshelterlighting.com

There are some classic works in the ballet canon. 

And then there are the works staged by the Eugene Ballet Company

Co-founder and artistic director Toni Pimble frequently reaches outside the canon to create new works. 

Last year: Bolero.  This year: Tommy.  As in the rock opera by The Who. 

Toni Pimble joins us to talk inspiration and execution.
