Tulsa Ballet Announces Season
ROMEO AND JULIET: Youhee Son and Hyonjun Rhee in Romeo and Juliet.
Tulsa Ballet Artistic Director Marcello Angelini announces the 2015/16 Season. This monumental lineup aims to strike a unique balance between audience favorites and World Premieres by some of the world’s most in-demand choreographers. Tulsa Ballet performances will take place at the Tulsa Performing Arts Center, Studio K located in the Tulsa Ballet headquarters, as well as a spring series in The Lorton Performance Center on the campus of The University of Tulsa.
“To be perfectly honest, this is really my dream season,” says Angelini, as he enters his 21st season at Tulsa Ballet. “If I could have planned 10 programs during the same season, instead of our usual five, we would have done these ballets this year for the anniversary.” From romantic love stories to uproarious comedies to electrifying contemporary works, there is truly something for everyone in the 2015/16 Season.
