The show can be done very effectively with just 5 actors, but can also be performed with a larger cast. Click here for the script, which includes a character list. Rev. 1-3-21 Is there a chorus? There can be a chorus. The show was written with adding a chorus in mind.

There’s also an opportunity for a corp of ballet dancers should you have that kind of talent available to you. Do all 5 characters have to dance ballet? Marie, and her friends Lois (or Louis) and Charlotte must be able to dance ballet. Ed/Degas and Mama/Mistress de Ballet do not. Is The Little Dancer a show for the holidays only? No! The story does have a holiday theme, but is perfect for anytime of the year. How hard is the music to learn? The music is not too difficult for talented amateurs to learn and perform well.

The Little Dancer will have the underlings giggling, but doesn’t “dumb down” like many children’s theatre musicals. The Little Dancer is truly a family show. Teens and parents will love it too. The story will warm all hearts, and have the toes of all ages tapping in the aisle. Rev. 1-3-21 What is the synopsis of The Little Dancer? It all begins at a museum near you, where Ed the security guard is anxiously waiting for the return of his favorite sculpture, The Little Dancer, Aged 14, after a long absence due to restoration work. While he waits, he brings vividly to life the story of how Marie Van Goethem became the most famous dancer in the world. It all starts when Mama Van Goethem takes on extra laundry work so that Marie can fulfill her lifelong dream to take dance lessons. In no time, the fourteen year old is discovered by her new friends Louis and Charlotte, as well as the strict Mistress de Ballet, to be Paree’s next great ballerina in the making. They warn her that if she wants to succeed, she needs to work hard, never be late, and - most importantly - stay away from the meanest artist in town, Degas. Marie heeds their advice, until her ill grandfather grows sicker, and needs an expensive new medicine that Mama cannot afford. Marie, fearless as always, agrees against her better judgement to earn the extra money by modeling for Degas. His latest model, also realizing that Maris is special, inspires the cranky old artist to attempt to create something equally special - a sculpture made of clay that allows for a realness the likes of which the art world has never seen. But the long hours of modeling effects Marie’s dancing, and she is fired as the coveted featured dancer in the Opera House’s annual holiday ballet. Heart broken, Marie vows to the artist, her Mama, and her friends that her days as a dancer are done. But months later, an invitation arrives in the mail for her to attend an exhibit at the most important gallery in all of Paris. Marie gets the surprise of her life when she witnesses Degas’ masterpiece and the talk of the town is...her! When Marie learns that the artist has lost his eyesight, she decides to come out of retirement, and asks Degas to dance with her around the gallery. The story ends where it began. Ed the security guard gets his own surprise when, just before the museum’s closing, his favorite sculpture is returned - restored and magnificent. As he turns the lights out, the sculpture winks. The end! Rev. 1-3-21 Rev. 1-3-21.

Latta, Ph.D. Abstract The focus of this ethnographic study is to examine the industry-wide culture of the American ballet. Two additional research questions guided the investigation: what attributes, and their light and dark dimensions, are valued among individuals selected for leadership roles within the culture, and how does the ballet industry nurture these attributes? An understanding of the culture was garnered through observations and interviews conducted in three classically-based professional ballet companies in the United States: one located in the Rocky Mountain region, one in the Midwestern region, and one in the Pacific Northwest region. Data analysis brought forth cultural and leadership themes revealing an industry consumed by “the ideal” to the point that members are willing to make sacrifices, both at the individual and organizational levels, for the pursuit of beauty. The ballet culture was found to expect its leaders to manifest the light dimensions of attributes valued by the culture, because these individuals are elevated to the extent that they “become the culture,” but they also allow these individuals to simultaneously exemplify the dark dimensions of these attributes.

  • 08 Tate Modern in the Studio
    1 Antony Gormley (b. 1950), Untitled (for Francis), 1985 (Room 1), lead, plaster, polyester resin and fibreglass 1900 × 1170 × 290cm Giovanni Bellini, St Francis in Ecstasy, 1479-85 • Finding Meaning. In this room we have two apparently contrasting works. Over there an abstract work by Eva Hesse and here a human figure by Antony Gormley. They represent contrasting approaches that are explored in the following rooms. Gormley is best known for The Angel of the North (see Visual Aids) an enormous sculpture on a hill near Newcastle. • Construction. This work is called Untitled (for Francis) and was made in 1985. Like many of his other works it was made directly from his own body. He was wrapped in clingfilm by his wife, who is also an artist, and then covered in two layers of plaster. When it had dried the cast was cut from his body, reassembled and then covered in fibreglass and resin. Twenty-four sheets of lead were then hammered over the figure and soldered together. If you look closely you will see that the figure has been pierced in the breast, hands and feet by small holes cut in the lead. • St. Francis. The attitude of the eyeless figure, standing with head tilted back, feet apart and arms extended to display the palms of its hands, resembles that of a Christian saint receiving the stigmata. Stigmata are the five marks left on Christ’s 2 body by the Crucifixion although one of the wounds here is in the breast, rather than, as tradition dictates, in the side.

  • The Nutcracker—Act I
    The Children’s Educaon Program Of Performing Arts Fort Worth At Bass Performance Hall — presents — The Nutcracker—Act I For Third Grade Students December 13 & 17-18, 2019 Bass Performance Hall · 4th & Calhoun Streets · Fort Worth, TX 76102 2 Dear Teachers, We are thrilled to bring Texas Ballet Theater’s magical performance of The Nutcracker Ballet to third graders. So many beautiful memories are made each holiday season during performances of this immortal childhood favorite. Because the entire performance is over 2 ½ hours long, we will present only the first act, which is approximately 45 -50 minutes in length. While the first act does not include “Waltz of the Flowers” or the “Russian Trepak,” there are still many special moments in store for them. Please introduce your students to all the music found in the Nutcracker Suite, encouraging them to imagine what the ballet dancers would do during these sections. This is some of the world’s most favorite music and should be a part of every child’s repertoire. Many TEKS objectives can be met with the material covered in this study guide. We have listed them collectively so that you may choose those that fit the needs of your students. We have also included two versions of the story— one that more advanced students may want to read or can be read to the class as a whole and one that many third grade students can read. Choose the one that is better suited to your students. But please DO read one before coming to the performance! Language Arts and Reading: 110.5 Student listens attentively

It was a large-scale history painting—one of the few Degas would produce—and it pictured classical figures, linear and abstracted, locked in frieze-like arrangement on either side of a silent space. After seeing the abandoned canvas in the artist's studio in 1879, the Italian art critic Diego Martelli described it as "one of the most classicizing paintings imaginable" and suspected that it remained unfinished precisely for that reason: "Degas could not fossilize himself in a composite past," he explained in a lecture later that year.[1] Soon after Martelli's remarks, Degas returned to the painting, removing the classicizing architecture and making several compositional changes. And in one of the most unusual revisions of his career, he painted over the classical profiles, replacing them with distinctly unidealized heads.[2] The result was his Young Spartans, now at the National Gallery, London; the painting's original appearance is best approximated by the classicizing grisailles in the Art Institute of Chicago.

  • Impression, Sunrise Haystacks
    Impression, Sunrise by Claude Monet This painting, done in 1872, gave the name to the Impres- sionist movement. It shows the port of Le Havre in France, the artists hometown. This painting is one of a series that showed the port at different times of day, in different quali- ties of light. The purpose of the painting was to capture the essence of the light, the colors, the mood of the scene, not to reproduce the details faithfully. The two row boats in the center and the red sun are the focal points of the painting. The tall masted ships and the smokestacks in the hazy distance are less a focus, but con- tribute to the modern feeling of the painting. Completed just after the Franco-Prussia war, this was a statement of patriotism and optimism for a modern thriving France. Haystacks (sunset) by Claude Monet This is one of 25 paintings of haystacks done by Monet during the summer and fall of 1890 through the early spring of 1891. The haystacks were an ordinary feature of grain fields near Monet’s home in Giverny during the fall harvest. They protected the heads of wheat until the threshing ma- chines could be brought round to the various farms. Mon- et’s purpose was to capture how the changing light and seasons affected the homey scene. He and his stepdaugh- ter, Blanche, carted dozens of canvasses to and from the fields each day and Monet worked on them in turn, as the light most closely resembling a particular painting returned. Water Lilies and the Japanese Bridge by Claude Monet Painted in the artist’s garden at Giverny, this painting was done in 1897-99 after the artist finally began to achieve some financial success as a painter.
