Huntsville Ballet continues its 62nd season with Dancers’ Choice, an intimate series of in-studio performances that showcases the creativity and versatility of the company’s professional dancers.
The performances will take place Feb. 13–15 inside Studio 4 at Huntsville Ballet, offering audiences a rare opportunity to experience dance just feet away from the performers. The studio setting creates a personal, immersive atmosphere unlike traditional stage productions.
Dancers’ Choice allows company members to choreograph and perform original works alongside excerpts from classical favorites, blending ballet with contemporary styles and diverse movement.
“The studio environment allows audiences to experience dance in a very personal way,” said Artistic Director Phillip Otto. “It’s equally enjoyed by seasoned ballet enthusiasts and those attending their first performance.”
The program will feature selections from well-known ballets including Romeo and Juliet, La Sylphide, and Stage Door Canteen, as well as three original works choreographed by Cathy Curry and company dancers Abby Callahan and Daria Kasuska.
Each performance concludes with a post-show meet-and-greet, giving audience members the chance to speak directly with dancers and directors, ask questions about the choreography and learn more about the creative process behind the performances.
Because the shows take place in the studio, seating is limited for each performance.
