fabulous Hansel and Gretel interpretation
Southern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium - Calgary
Loved the artistic rendering of this fairytale: silent film, 20's jazz. The sets and costumes were very imaginative (think Cirque du Soleil), the fresh score held up the dance component beautifully. I so enjoyed the addition of caring parents, and their pas de deux - romantic and moving. I would definitely recommend seeing this ballet if you have a chance.

This show went way beyond my expectations. It was fabulously quirky, hilarious and the music was phenomenal. By far my most favorite and memorable ballet! I dont know how another show can top it. I didn’t want it to end!
