The New OKC Ballet Rocks
The Headless Horseman rides again downtown.
I arrived late for a noon lunch appointment downtown today. I’m glad I did (and thanks to Kim Searls and Jessica Gonzalez for helping me get some photos of the wonderful chaos we encountered!)
This isn't your grandmother's ballet troupe.
So what’s this all about? It’s about the reorganized Oklahoma City Ballet, which first captured our attention a couple months ago with a great performance outside City Hall. Today the ballet folks paraded down Park Avenue to promote their latest production of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.
Great stuff guys.
The Oklahoma City Ballet will hold three performances of old pumpkinhead at 7 p.m. Oct. 30, 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. Oct. 31.
Here’s the rundown of the show:
Based on Washington Irving’s spooky tale of schoolmaster Ichabod Crane, Bram Bones and of course the unforgettable Headless Horseman, this full length ballet is sure to be a new Halloween favorite for the entire family. We’re promised the show will boast beautiful sets, costumes and an original score composed by Emmy award winning composer Lanny Meyers played live by the Oklahoma City Philharmonic.
