By Garrett Smith
Garrett Smith celebrates individuality with his creation on Beethoven's Symphony No. 5, one of the most important and recognized symphonies in the world. Drawing inspiration from the uniqueness and distinctiveness of each individual, Smith crafts a work that celebrates the power of self-acceptance: an ode to newfound freedom as masks fall away. This creation is also known as Complete.
“I am inspired by people who have the bravery to fully show their true selves, especially within communities or societies that impose barriers and constraints. This ballet takes a look at the beauty of our uniqueness and the excitement of trying something new, of turning over a new leaf and shedding superficial layers in order to put on one’s true face in broad daylight, without fear.”
