Description
TEXAS BALLET THEATER: DRACULA
BASS PERFORMANCE HALL, FORT WORTH
Two Tickets Sunday, April 20, 2:00 p.o.
BE THRILLED AND BE CHILLED when Texas Ballet Theater performs Ben Stevenson’s Dracula. It's ballet to die for!
Set to the haunting music of Franz Liszt, the story opens in Dracula’s castle, where ghostly lighting illuminates the Count’s cold crypt. The atmosphere breathes with the spirit of evil and the smell of darkness as Dracula seals his latest marriage – with a bite!
Festivities in the picturesque village cannot escape the foreboding shadow cast by the Count on the hunt. Ensnaring his latest victim in his vast bat-shaped cloak, he carries her away in a frenzied coach ride, careening toward the castle gate. But this time, the Count tangles with the wrong maiden!
He’s hypnotic. He’s confident. He’s devilishly calculating. With spellbinding sets by Thomas Boyd, gothic costumes by Judanna Lynn and lighting by Tim Hunter, Texas Ballet Theater takes us deep into what The New York Times calls “a Dracula beyond Bram Stoker’s darkest dreams!”
RECOMMENDED FOR MATURE TEENS AND ADULTS.
“Exquisitely beautiful and atmospheric.”
- The New York Times
