Enchanted Tales: Celebrating the Golden Age of Ballet

THE FIREBIRD // Be transported… into the mystical realm of folklore and legend, as The Firebird – a powerful good spirit endowed with magical feathers – helps the heroic Prince Ivan Tsarevich rescue his beloved princess from the evil sorcerer Kashchei.  Set to Stravinsky’s powerful & complex music and Fokine’s innovative choreography this groundbreaking ballet will ignite your imagination!

LES SYLPHIDES // Be enchanted… as woodland sylphs in long white tutus glide through the moonlight with a young gentleman poet. This romantic reverie is a timeless example of “pure dance” set to the other-worldly music of Chopin’s orchestral arrangement.

ANNA PAVLOVA TRIBUTE // Be inspired… by adaptations of some of legendary ballerina Anna Pavlova’s most famous roles – “The Dragonfly”, “The Dying Swan” and “La Peri”.

Presented by Ballet Theatre of Carmel Academy’s pre-professional performing company along with dancers from our “Be A Fairy” community program, and special guest artists from American Midwest Ballet Theatre, Colorado Ballet Studio Company, and IU Jacobs School of Music!

This is a family-friendly production with a 20 minute intermission and lobby activities for all ages! Join the dancers in a post-show Cast Meet & Greet – check out their costumes, ask about their characters, feel their pointe shoes, get an autograph, and take lots of photos! Shop the Ballet Boutique filled with books, tiaras & tutus, decorated pointe shoes, jewelry, ornaments, and more. Indulge in a delicious confection from the Enchanted Sweets Bake Sale.
