2019 Spring Performance: Giselle
All Academy Production of Giselle
May 25, 2019 at 1:00PM & 6:00PM | Ellie Caulkins Opera House
All students enrolled in Levels 1 through Pre-Professional Division will perform Giselle on May 25 at the Ellie Caulkins Opera House. Giselle is a romantic masterpiece that has been performed continually since it was created more than 160 years ago. With original and adapted choreography by Academy director Erica Fischbach and faculty accompanied by Adolph Adam’s moving score, the ballet shows the power of true love between a beautiful peasant girl named Giselle and the royal count Albrecht. Colorado Ballet Academy is thrilled to teach the art of ballet to students through this classical masterpiece and perform in Denver’s most treasured theater!
T-SHIRTS
To commemorate the beauty of Giselle, we have partnered with a local artist to create a unique t-shirt available in men
and women’s sizing as well as unisex sizing for youth. T-shirt sizing runs small and fabric is 50% poly/25% cotton/25% rayon.
Online ordering has closed. If you would like to order, please contact the Academy and if minimums are met, we will place a second order. T-shirts may arrive after show date of May 25.
FLOWERS
Present your ballet dancer with a congratulatory spray designed by local florist Two Women and a Truck. This year we are
offering two bouquet options, small and large. Floral arrangements will be available for pick-up after each performance
at the Ellie Caulkins Opera House. A limited number of bouquets will be available day of show, but will sell out quickly.
