This episode features PAS DE DEUX creator and Ballet Theatre Soloist dancer, Gabe Stone Shayer in collaboration with Grammy® Award-winning singer, songwriter and actor, Alicia Keys. “Collaborating with with Alicia was invigorating, I felt like I was talking to a true artist. We had a meeting of minds in a period where we all are in deep thought about the world. I loved every second I got to talk with her about perspective and I hope that the meshing of our minds manifests in the work we created!” -Gabe American Ballet Theatre launches PAS DE DEUX, a limited, four-episode documentary series exploring the intersection of dance and other diverse art forms. Produced by Oscar®-winning Little Monster Films, each PAS DE DEUX episode sets the stage for two artists to delve into each other’s process and craft in intimate conversations that culminate in new artistic creations. Created by ABT Soloist Gabe Stone Shayer, PAS DE DEUX takes viewers into the homes and workspaces of each dancer and collaborator, allowing these diverse creators the opportunity to connect virtually for an exchange of ideas.
