Peter and the Wolf – Written in 1936, Sergei Prokofiev’s symphonic folk tale has enchanted generations of children and adults. ABA presents the ballet premiere of the exciting story of the hungry wolf, the ill-fated duck, the fortunate cat, the fearless little bird, and brave Peter, who helps save his friends from the wolf’s jaws – and saves the wolf from the hunters’ guns. Each character in the story is represented by a melody played by a different instrument. The story of Peter and the Wolf teaches an important lesson – to have courage while facing a challenge.
Magical Garden – An enchanting original short ballet choreographed by Jacqueline Akhmedova after Mikhail Fokine. This is a classical ballet delight for all ages.
Avant – Garde – Contemporary and Character masterpieces premiered and presented by ABA dancers.
