Discover the most exalted art form on earth. A mixture of movement, music, literature and pure emotion: the Ballet!

 Learn: Who created these works of theatrical art, Why they did so, Who were their audiences (and patrons), Where were they displayed - and What effect they had on culture.

 In this 4-session intensive we will marvel at some the most famous works (“Swan Lake,” “Romeo & Juliet,” “The Rite of Spring”), as well as more obscure treasures (“Fancy Free,” “Bolero”).
