A ballet based on Shakespeare’s well-loved play involving the world of fairies as well as humans. Felix Mendelssohn’s beautiful music is a background for the choreography of Thom Clower and takes the audience on a comic journey.
Also on the program are selections from the GBT Repertory. Six original and more contemporary pieces will get the audience’s collective heart pumping. One new piece, Vim, has been choreographed by GBT alumnus Robert Dekkers, a native of Gwinnett County. Dekkers was named one of “25 Dancers to Watch in 2011” by Dance Magazine, a very prestigious honor. He joins GBT alumna Jessica Collado of Houston Ballet who received this Dance Magazine honor in 2009. Vim is performed to the music of Yann Tiersen.
