This show seems to me to be the clear pick of ABT's Fall Season.  There's the peerless Alexei Ratmanksy's duet to settings of the folk music of Bukovina.  There's a brand new (world premiere!) piece by ABT regular Jessica Lang.  And then there's Twyla Tharp's In the Upper Room, to Philip Glass, which you'd call thrilling if "thrilling" didn't understate how thrilling it actually is.  For all you celebrity hounds, Misty Copeland will be dancing in two of these pieces.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  It would not be amiss to visit Tom Valenti's quite appealing Oxbow Tavern.
