From the great ballet traditions of the 19th Century, through the sultry tango bars of Argentina, to the most impassioned and tragic love story of all time, Ballet Kelowna takes audiences on a passionate journey through ballet history. Argentinian composer Astor Piazzola’s exciting and vibrant music is the inspiration for Tangazzo (2005), an intoxicating look into the seductive dance of love and passion. Romeo and Juliet Appassionata (2010), set to Tchaikovsky’s soaring and powerful music, is a condensed version of the familiar tale of star-crossed young lovers and will surely move all who see it. To complete the program, we will offer a new ballet once again from one of Canada’s acclaimed choreographers, a work that is sure to captivate.
Ballet Kelowna will present A Grand Passion on Tuesday, February 28th, at 7:30 pm. Tickets are available from the box office, by phone at (250) 785-1992 and online.
Adults $37, Seniors $27, Students and Children $17.
