DESCRIPTION:Jul 23-26\, 2026\nMixed repertory programs organized by the dan
 cer who stars in them don’t tend to turn out well\, but this endeavor by
  the Paris Opera Ballet étoile Hugo Marchand could be the exception. Ther
 e is a preponderance of pas de deux\, but they run the gamut from neoclass
 ical Balanchine to appealingly primitivist Angelin Preljocaj to the influe
 ntial Franco-American Carolyn Carson\, whose imagistic work rarely travels
  to the States. Plus\, Marchand has spread the parts among his fellow POB 
 principals\, including the soulful and musically vibrant Dorothée Gilbert
 . And in a break from the duets\, the late Maurice Béjart’s Swiss reper
 tory company will perform his homoerotic Firebird\, a welcome addition to 
 the panoply of Firebirds that have landed in New York this year. As for Ma
 rchand the dancer\, he is a paragon of Michelangelic beauty but a reticent
  star. The work he is best at—full-bodied contemporary dance\, on the on
 e hand\, and Balanchine’s airy neoclassicism\, on the other—is represe
 nted on the program\, but he’s not dancing it. Instead\, the 32-year-old
  appears in Béjart’s kitschy Bolero—bare-chested on a platform above 
 a battalion of rapturous men.
