Letters of Reflection
by WGRUV (pronounced "we groove") Dance Company features seven original works by Holly and Lex Gruver alongside Unsquared, a celebrated piece by American choreographer Tyler Gilstrap. The production unfolds like a series of letters, each exploring thought-provoking themes through the company's fusion of contemporary ballet, technical precision, and expressive freedom.  

The performance reflects on love, loss, work, and relationships, questioning the doubts and falsehoods that shape human experience while celebrating the power of community. With neoclassical and contemporary choreography, the dancers embody a fresh and hopeful spirit. 

Holly Gruver, the founder of WGRUV, has built a diverse choreographic portfolio over the past decade in Africa, while Lex Gruver, co-director and First Artist, collaborates on numerous neoclassical and contemporary works. Gilstrap, known for her work with Battleworks and major international productions, adds depth to the programme. 

From Wed, Apr 9 – Sun, Apr 13, lovers of contemporary ballet can watch a visually stunning and spiritually enriching staging of Letters of Reflection at The Lesedi at Joburg Theatre. Tickets are R100 – R220 per person. There are only four performances; book your seats now
