at Orpheum Theatre

Three ballets by the Father of American Ballet, George Balanchine, including a work never before performed by Ballet Arizona – the jazzy Slaughter on Tenth Avenue, exhilarating Bourrée Fantasque, and romantic Serenade. Set to music by Rogers & Kay, Chabrier, and Tchaikovsky, this thrilling and stylish program demonstrates both the unmatched artistry of Balanchine and his profound influence on Ballet Arizona.

Slaughter on Tenth Avenue

An audience favorite with showbiz charm, Slaughter on Tenth Avenueis an alluring ballet about a jealous Russian premier danseur and his hoofing American rival. Taken from the Broadway musical On Your Toes, Slaughter on Tenth Avenue was the first of four Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart musicals choreographed by Balanchine.

Bourrée FantasqueArizona Premiere
Balanchine takes comic aim at many of the conventions that characterize classical dance while providing glimpses of popular dances such as the tango and the can-can. Bourrée Fantasque moves from comic absurdity to dazzling hilarity, with astounding shifts of geometric formations.

Bourrée Fantasque is sponsored in part by Dr. Eleanore Jane Rosenthal.

Serenade

The first ballet Balanchine choreographed in America, Serenade is a romantic work of massive sweep set to a transcendent Tchaikovsky score, echoing themes of betrayal and alluding to images of protection.
