Giselle

A New Staging by Tim O’Keefe

Giselle is one of the most iconic classical ballets of all time. A tale of love, betrayal, and redemption, the tragedy of Giselle is told through delicate yet demanding choreography. This performance features intricate pointe work and sweeping, ghost-like movements that evoke an otherworldly sense of beauty.

Forsaken by her love, the beautiful-but-bereft Giselle succumbs to madness and a broken heart. Yet even in death, she offers forgiveness to her faithless suitor in an effort to save him from the vengeful Willis. Join us as Artistic Director Tim O’Keefe presents his brilliant interpretation of this iconic masterpiece.

Giselle contains themes of self-harm, suicide, mental illness, and infidelity. Viewer discretion is advised.
