The emotionally powerful original work by LAB Artistic Director Melissa Barak returns to the stage in 2025. Memoryhouse is an abstract ballet composed of vignettes commemorating the 6 million Jewish lives lost during the Holocaust. Memoryhouse 2024/2025 Season / Memoryhouse / JANUARY/FEBRUARY 2025 The Wallis & Los Angeles Ballet Present Memoryhouse The emotionally powerful original work by LAB Artistic Director Melissa Barak returns to the stage in 2025. Memoryhouse is an abstract ballet composed of vignettes commemorating the 6 million Jewish lives lost during the Holocaust; the ballet is set to Max Richter’s powerful album of the same name in its entirety. The ballet has 18 movements, totaling the number of tracks on the album. Some movements connect with others while some live on their own. No alterations were made to the score, the electronic voices, sounds, and touches are part of the original recording. This haunting piece blends modern, traditional, and abstract dance forms taking audiences on a journey of emotional reflection. Barak partnered with Hagy Belzberg, Founding Partner of BA Collective and the architect of The Holocaust Museum LA for set design, and Sebastian Peschiera of Narduli Studio for media design. Choreography LAB Artistic Director and L.A. native Melissa Barak’s choreography for Memoryhouse was inspired years ago after listening to Richter’s album. Using Richter’s score as a guide, and putting together the stories she’d spent years gathering, Barak began creating movements based on time and place representing the Holocaust. It was a labor of love that returns to LAB this winter. Score Max Richter is a German-born composer and pianist of ballet, opera, stage, and film. He is known for his contemporary classical and postminimalist styles. Memoryhouse represented Richter’s first solo debut in 2002 and was lauded as a “landmark work of contemporary classical” weaving blending electronic and orchestral sounds. Richter’s work can also be found on television most recently in HBO’s The Last of Us and Hulu’s The Veil .

Journey with young Clara and her beloved Nutcracker as they battle a very memorable Mouse King, and then travel to the Land of Snow and the Palace of the Dolls. LAB stays true to the traditions of the classic holiday story while giving it a unique Southern California twist. From the elegant Spanish-style Hancock Park home to the snowy slopes of Big Bear to the Venice Beach archways, and the moonlit Pacific Ocean, this production is a sunny slice of the Southland. As a special holiday treat, LAB will extend its stay at Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, with additional performances after Christmas Day. All performances at Dolby feature Tchaikovsky’s iconic score performed live by the Los Angeles Ballet Orchestra. Choreography LAB founders and former co-artistic directors Thordal Christensen and Colleen Neary’s original choreography is an inspired take on this classic holiday favorite that reflects the city where this production and LAB was born. Score Pyotr Illych Tchaikovsky’s The Nutcracker is one of the most recognizable ballet scores for audiences worldwide.
