Royce Vavrek: Dancer in New York

About Royce Vavrek

Royce Vavrek is a Canadian-born writer based in Brooklyn whose work moves between opera, music theater, and dance storytelling. He writes librettos and scenarios in close collaboration with composers including Missy Mazzoli, David T. Little, and Mikael Karlsson, and his projects have intersected with New York institutions such as The Metropolitan Opera and Works & Process at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum. He has also collaborated with artists and companies including Patricia Delgado and Miami City Ballet. His texts tend to favor psychological detail and clear narrative architecture over display.
