It is not wise to steal from the 🍦 Witch!!!
🍭Media and ticket winners got a "sweet preview" of @nvballet Season Finale production of "Hansel & Gretel" making its Las Vegas premiere this Friday @smithcenterlv !!
🧁Hosted by @msmertz@audacy we learned what to expect thanks to Artistic Director @roykaiser1 & @nzballet Resident Choreographer @prior_visual
🍬 This iconic fairy tale promises to be "deliciously wicked...and dangerously irresistible!!!"
Prior (who says the 🍦 Witch was inspired by a Las Vegas Showgirl!) believes the core characters will take us all on a Grimm yet hilarious ride.
"It's actually the perfect platform to create a family show because there is that slight darkness which is then offset with humor," said Prior.
"And I'd like to think that this production sort of opens the doors wide for the possibilities of what ballet can be....you are getting sort of a palette of all the different styles of dance."
Said Kaiser of Prior's production: "It's redefining the art form and it's making it really relevant today. That's what we need. We need more of it."
And I say, "Ice cream! You scream! We all scream for ice cream!"
Get your tix now!!
May 15 - 24th!!
And don't be afraid to get your candy on!!

A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Balanchine’s first completely original full-length ballet, premiered at New York City Ballet on 17 January 1962, just one year after I was born, with Edward Villella in the role of Oberon, Melissa Hayden in the role of Titania, and Arthur Mitchell in the role of Puck. I had the honor and privilege to get to dance in the role of Puck 20 years later, at the Pennsylvania Ballet @philadelphiaballet , photographed here with @roykaiser1 as Oberon. #ballet #dancer #balanchineballet #choreography #dancersofinstagram
