Before the Curtain is an interactive presentation exploring the art and athleticism of ballet in a fun and educational format. Girl Scouts will be given an inside look at the components that make a professional ballet performance magical: the costumes, the props, the lighting, the music and, of course, the dancers.
Charlotte Youth Ballet is putting on a show that will take you down the rabbit hole as they perform their storybook ballet interpretation of Lewis Carroll's classic children's story, Alice in Wonderland. Featuring student dancers from studios across the Charlotte area, and partnered with a blend of international and regional professional dancers, the production will showcase classical ballet with choreography by the iconic artistic directors, Gay Porter & Bridget Porter-Young. At a family friendly price, this is a fun way to experience a well-loved story. It will delight and astound audiences of all ages.
