Many award-winning choreographers have created ballets for both the Broadway stage and for ballet companies to perform on their own. Don’t miss this opportunity to see Saint Louis Ballet celebrate the “essence” of American musical theatre with these remarkable ballets that project the style, energy and rhythms of the Broadway stage. With accompaniment by full orchestra—the Springfield Symphony Orchestra for the third consecutive year.

Carousel (A Dance): Renowned soloist and choreographer Christopher Wheeldon set this creation to Richard Rodgers’ Broadway score.

Interplay: Jerome Robbins choreographed this jazzy and distinctly American ballet that some consider a precursor (and uncannily similar) to his famous West Side Story.

Who Cares?: George Balanchine set his lively ballet to hummable Gershwin melodies, creating what some critics called “Broadway on pointe.”
