SUMMARY:Ballet Under the Stars
DESCRIPTION:From the Austin Metamorphosis Dance Ensemble –\nOn June 3rd -4th \, Austin Metamorphosis Dance Ensemble will present their annual event Ballet Under the Stars at the Zilker Hillside Theater. Beginning just before sundown\, this Austin tradition is fun for the whole family and a great way to kick off your summer. The performance will feature a variety of choreographers including some emerging talent in the dance world. \nThis year’s production will feature Les Sylphides which was first performed in 1909 by the Ballet Russes. The beautiful setting of the park will become the backdrop of this ballet blanc. Blanc\, translated “white”\, refers to the wearing of long\, white tutus and became a characteristic of Romantic ballets. When explored from different perspectives\, the word takes on new meanings. For some it is the absence of something or a fresh start and for others it is a barrier or limit at its most intensity. Discover what BLANC means to you. \nWe invite the audience to come early and share picnics with friends and family under the beautiful evening sky. The dancers begin warming up an hour before the show and this provides a wonderful opportunity to see the preparations dancers make to create art with their bodies. During intermission the bucket is passed for donations and any amount is graciously accepted. Concessions are available. \nAustin Metamorphosis Dance Ensemble is professional dance company comprised of dancers throughout the greater Austin area. The company consists of student artists and resident artists. The dancers are challenged to be versatile while also honoring their technical ballet foundation. Productions range from classical ballets such as The Nutcracker and Sleeping Beauty to original choreography in modern and jazz. Annually\, they perform a free performance in Austin’s Zilker Park. The tradition of Ballet Under the Stars is one celebrated by thousands. The company was founded with the vision of seeing dancers grow throughout their careers and innovate the world of dance. Through masterful instruction\, challenging choreography\, and high caliber performance experiences\, AMDE is working to change the shape of dance one dancer at a time.
