Connecticut Ballet’s BALLET UNDER THE STARS returns to downtown Hartford for a free outdoor performance at Burr Mall on Thursday, July 28th at 6:30pm (rain date = 7/29 same time).
Bring a blanket and a picnic and enjoy the magic of classical and contemporary ballet at its finest.
Artistic Director Brett Raphael will narrate a program of four exciting works including the Spanish-flavored Paquita, a new ballet for five women by East Indian choreographer Yamini Kalluri, and a rousing closer to big band music, Threads From a String of Swing. Gratefully presented with support from Day Pitney LLP, Ella Burr McManus Trust and Hartford Steam Boiler.
