In the Spring of 2006, three of the Cullberg Ballet’s dancers were chosen to\u00a0create their own choreographies in V\u00e4xtverk<\/i>. The project was conceived as a means to support the burgeoning choreographic talent in the Cullberg Ballet at the time, while remaining outside the current repertoire of the company.<\/p>\nChoreographers:<\/h2>\n
