Peter and the Wolf, choreographed by HBTS director Sara Jo Strickland and featuring the beautiful costumes of Yuka Silvera and Kate McManus, will come to life for children in the East End community with orchestra, ballet and narration. The ballet will be danced by the students of the Hampton Ballet Theater school, which range from 4 to 18 years old. The score will be performed by the 25-piece Hampton Festival Orchestra, a group of professional musicians all from the East End, conducted under the passionate precision of Dr Andrew Perea.

This ballet is a treat for all ages, as Sergei Prokofiev’s famous score presents all the characters in the ballet as the sounds of different musical instruments. You won’t want to miss this exciting and educational performance!
