Sir Frederick Ashton’s hilarious one-hour telling of Shakespeare’s moon-lit masterpiece “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” returns to Ballet West for the first time in over ten years! Along with the Ballet West premiere of Ben Stevenson’s stunning, romantic pas de deux, Three Preludes, and Bruce Marks’ tribute to Utah’s Mormon pioneers, Songs of the Valley, this diverse program offers a taste of what ballet is all about.

Okay, I “borrowed” that text from Ballet West’s website (I never know what to write – I’m a visual guy), but I suggest you visit their site and buy tickets! These ballets are spectacular, full of energy and emotion, pure ART!
