... that the title of the ballet In Creases is a pun, a comment on the music by Philip Glass and what the choreographer Justin Peck "wanted to do structurally"? Sources: "Despite the pun, “In Creases” is not a funny ballet. Its title is a comment on its score, Philip Glass’s “Four Movements for Two Pianos,” in both the way this music falls into a series of sections and how its sections build in momentum and power." ([1]) "(The name) also comes from what I wanted to do structurally with the choreography." ([2])
ALT1:... that the costumes of the ballet In Creases are modified from old leotards from another ballet and unused unitards? Source: "Luckily we found something that worked: there was a ballet a few years ago by Peter Martins called Friandises, and the costumes for that were very basic. We took the leotards, basic Yumiko style leotards, and removed the skirts, and then we got these reject unitards and chopped them up and turned them into something else." ([3])
