Commonwealth Ballet is pleased to announce its Spring program, being presented on March 23 and 24th at the Maynard High School Theater, in Maynard, MA for 3 performances. The program, in two Acts, will feature the symphonic work “Peter and the Wolf” with music by Sergei Prokoviev, as well as “Continuum”.
“Peter & The Wolf” In this charming story, the boy Peter, against his Grandfather’s warnings, climbs over the garden wall and encounters a great big wolf! With the help of quick-thinking friends, a bird, a duck, and a cat, Peter captures the wolf and takes it to the zoo. Through Prokofiev’s iconic score, and choreography from CBC’s Artistic Director Melenie Diarbekirian and Boston-based choreographer Juliana Utz, this symphonic tale teaches us to be brave and to have courage in challenging circumstances.
“Continuum” is a curated program of works both classical and contemporary, familiar and new. The company will revisit La Vivandiere Pas de Six; excerpts from Juliana Utz’s Siren; and an excerpt from Chip Morris’ The Nightingale, and will premiere new work created by Melenie Diarbekirian. Both dancers and audience are invited to journey through this sequence and experience a continuum of movement ideas.
