WORLD PREMIERE/DOUBLE FEATURE

In September, step into the mystical Scottish Highlands with George Balanchine’s Scotch Symphony, a tribute to the era of Romantic Ballet. Paired with this movement through time, Ted Seymour’s The Creatures of Prometheus highlights the beauty of the arts as a foundation for a peaceful and just society. Beethoven’s only composition for ballet is an allegory revealing the ideals of the Enlightenment.

PROGRAM INCLUDES:

Scotch Symphony by George Balanchine 
Creatures of Prometheus by Ted Seymour
