Gen Horiuchi, the Artistic Director of Saint Louis Ballet, spoke with Tom Sudholt about this weekend’s upcoming performances of “Do it for Love” at the Kirkwood Performing Arts Center. Gen shared information about each of the three works on the program, including his own Moment, which utilizes about 40 dancers to illustrate the power of love and loss. He also revealed why George Balanchine is the reason Gen is living in the United States, and spoke of his company’s excitement about working with in-demand choreographer Amy Seiwert.
