Eternal damnation and eternal hope – this 700-year-old Italian poem still pulls on our hearts today!
Join us for a rare opportunity to see Dante’s famous Divine Comedy come to life in an original excerpt dance performance on October 21 at 7:30pm. Based on the three parts of the afterlife, this ballet invites the audience to explore Inferno, Purgatory, and Paradise in a uniquely intimate performance with choreography by Anna Betz and original music composed by Ian McGlynn.
The excerpt performance is part of a larger fundraising event to build support to develop the full-length version of this immersive ballet experience. Tickets include entry into the fabulous event, themed sips and bites, a live dance performance, and an opportunity to meet the choreographer, composer, and entire creative team of The Divine Comedy Ballet!
The Angels & Demons event is a costume party!
As the name suggests, choose a side (angel or demon) and arrive dressed in costume ready to enjoy yourself, mingle, dance, and explore the realms of Dante’s Divine Comedy. Gather inspiration for your ensemble from this Pinterest board.
Best costume will win a special release of the very first tracks of the Divine Comedy Ballet‘s original music!
