Little is more exciting in ballet or in any other facet of the arts than the emergence of a new talent brimming with potential, and that’s what the Joffrey Ballet delivered Wednesday evening in the Lyric Opera House with a compelling world premiere by Chanel DaSilva.
It was one of three distinctively styled works from past and present showcased on a mixed-repertory program titled “Beyond Borders” that runs for nine more performances through Oct. 23 and opens the Chicago-based company’s 2022-23 season.
