Third Bird


  • The Guggenheim Museum 1071 5th Avenue New York, NY, 10128 United States (map)

Since 2007, Works & Process has produced sold-out performances of Sergei Prokofiev’s charming children’s classic Peter & the Wolf, directed and narrated by Isaac Mizrahi. After over one hundred performances, Mizrahi was inspired to create an homage to this iconic work, and during the pandemic Works & Process commissioned Third Bird with a new score by Nico Muhly. Highlighting a cast of eight—including a flying bluebird, a swimming duck, and a running ostrich—with choreography by John Heginbotham performed by Dance Heginbotham, accompanied by Carnegie Hall’s Ensemble Connect, and conducted by Michael P. Atkinson, Third Bird celebrates each individual’s unique strengths.
