Subscription Packages 2013-2014 Season
Texas Ballet Theater is proud to announce that its 2013-2014 EPIC season will be just that, a legendary celebration of classical story ballets and contemporary masterpieces. The Company is also pleased to welcome back the Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra for the season finale, Swan Lake. This fall, North Texas will be entranced by Ben Stevenson's thrilling and romantic Romeo and Juliet, which opens the season on October 18th with bright costumes and lively fight scenes. The Ballet is also excited to continue an annual holiday tradition by presenting The Nutcracker, the tale of young Clara who journeys to the Land of the Sweets, and The Nutty Nutcracker, its comedic counterpart. In contrast, Epic Masterpieces will showcase two contemporary ballets: Serenade, Balanchine's "dance in the moonlight;" and MacMillan's Gloria, a haunting remembrance of World War I. Serenade, which was choreographed for the student dancers of the School of American Ballet, personifies innocence and grace, while Gloria depicts the devastation of war and the memory of happier times. The grand finale of the EPIC season is Ben Stevenson's exquisite Swan Lake. Texas Ballet Theater is thrilled to announce that this eternal story of love and betrayal will be accompanied by the Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra to celebrate Tchaikovsky's work and present this timeless ballet at its best.
