(NEW YORK, NY) -- Works & Process presents New Jersey Ballet: Maria Kowroski and Harrison Ball, on April 14, 2025 at Guggenheim New York in the Peter B. Lewis Theater. See highlights from former New York City Ballet principal dancer Harrison Ball's second commission for New Jersey Ballet.

Fresh from the success of his first ballet commission, Ball is quickly becoming a must-see voice in ballet, known for his dynamic and expressive movement style. Join Ball and artistic director Maria Kowroski for a discussion moderated by Donya Archer Bommer prior to the work's premiere at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center on Thursday, April 24.

Tickets start at $25 and are available for purchase online. The Peter B. Lewis Theater is located at 1071 Fifth Avenue in New York, NY.

Championing performing artists and their creative process for each step from studio to stage, Works & Process features artists both those from the world’s largest organizations and emerging new talent. Works & Process amplifies performing arts traditions that transcend the stage, and encourage audiences to spectate, participate, and continue the conversation beyond the stage. Works & Process programs blend artist discussion and performance highlights, with post-performance receptions at Guggenheim New York and beyond. During the summer, Works & Process curates and presents free outdoor dance programs with Manhattan West and City Parks Foundation’s SummerStage.

Works & Process Artists-in-Residence are provided with commissions and made-to-measure LaunchPAD creative residencies that are fully funded and sequenced, offering 24/7 studio availability, on-site housing, health insurance enrollment access, industry-leading residency fees, and transportation to fifteen residency partners across MA, NJ, NY, and VT.
