Alice in Wonderland
Music from Le Tombeau de Couperin by Maurice Ravel
Choreography by Alice Reid
The tale and her adventures in Wonderland featuring favorite characters like The Mad Hatter, Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum, and the Cheshire Cat.
The Pied Piper of Hamelin is a colorful ballet featuring an evocative score by Edvard Grieg, including the haunting "Hall of The Mountain King”
While Pied Piper is timely for Halloween (children as well as rats are led away from their village), artistic elements, including the unforgettable backdrop by Alice Reid, the comic relief provided by the clownish Mayor and his two clumsy sidekicks, and the virtuoso dancing displayed by the Gypsies, Townspeople and the Pied Piper himself, reassuringly demonstrate that this is all make-believe.
