BostonHerald.com reports that Snappy Dance Theater will be performing the world premiere of The Temperamental Wobble, a ballet based on Edward Gorey’s books, as part of the FleetBoston Celebrity Series:

After receiving the commission from the Celebrity Series (under the auspices of its Boston Marquis Series, which is dedicated to the work of Boston performing artists), the company began its usual collaborative process. The dancers retreated for a week to a studio in Chatham, reading Gorey’s books, improvising and paying attention to their dreams.

Costumes were designed by Kambriel.
