W E L C O M Eto our 2018/19 season

We’re pleased to announce our new season and our triumphant return to the Wortham Theater Center, following the rousing success of our first-ever Hometown Tour in venues across our beloved city. Navigating the unprecedented challenges resulting from Hurricane Harvey truly showcased the resiliency and tenacity of Houston Ballet and our cherished community of supporters. We look forward to taking the stage back in our home venue this upcoming season.

For our triumphant return home, we have curated an enthralling collection of works to delight every audience. My dream of bringing Sylvia to the stage comes true in a World Premiere that intertwines the legend of Sylvia with the mystique of Greek mythology to create a romantic tale fraught with adventure and desire that you won’t want to miss. My beloved Marie

also returns with extravagant costumes and riveting historic drama, alongside treasured family favorite Coppélia in all of its colorful, lighthearted charm. The beauty and comedy of The Merry Widow will enchant once again and we know you’ll be thrilled with ROBBINS, our centennial celebration of legendary choreographer Jerome Robbins showcasing three of his most famous pieces. Our final mixed repertory program, Premieres, consists entirely of Houston Ballet and World Premieres featuring fresh, dynamic artistry from esteemed choreographers Aszure Barton, Justin Peck, and Jiří Kylián. Our beloved Margaret Alkek Williams Jubilee of Dance and Academy Spring Showcase also return to the Wortham so make plans to join us for these celebrations. And of course we can’t forget the crown jewel, The Nutcracker, the magnificent holiday spectacle that will launch this season’s wonderful artistic journey.

We are looking forward to the magic of this upcoming season and would love for you to join us as a full-season subscriber.

Only subscribers enjoy these additional benefits:

*See 6 ballets for the price of 5. *Get the best seats at the best prices. *Each Subscriber account is eligible for one full production swap (excluding The Nutcracker and Margaret Alkek Williams Jubilee of Dance).

Stanton Welch AM brings his own interpretation to the classic story of the strong mythological heroine, the huntress Sylvia, and her love for a mortal shepherd. The ballet follows her journey as she’s torn between her duty and her desires. Welch’s inspired work will showcase a constellation of figures from Greek mythology woven together in a tapestry of three love stories. This ballet is set to Léo Delibes’ famous score and provides an opportunity to see the classic story through Welch’s unique and creative narrative. This mythical romance is surrounded by gorgeous costume and scenic designs by world-renowned ballet and opera designer Jerome Kaplan, with projections by Houston Ballet favorite Wendall K. Harrington, whose delicious designs were featured in Stanton Welch’s The Nutcracker.

We’re thrilled to join ballet companies around the world in celebrating the 100th anniversary of Jerome Robbins’ birth. In our first of three diverse pieces, we welcome back Robbins’ Fancy Free, a delightful glimpse into the lives of three sailors on leave during one hot summer night in 1940s New York City. The unique blend of Robbins’ iconic Broadway style and balletic grace in Fancy Free helped launch his career and inspire the Broadway musical On the Town. Stanton Welch AM has specifically selected The Cage, a lesser-known Robbins work that features our brilliant female dancers as they transform into a troupe of abstract insect-like creatures who hunt down their male prey. With our final Robbins piece, The Concert (or the Perils of Everybody), we bring back one of the great comedic ballets of all time.

The range of our dancers is on display in a program made up entirely of premieres. After the triumph of her World Premiere Angular Momentum created in 2012 for Houston Ballet, Aszure Barton returns with Come In, a contemporary work for thirteen male dancers. Following the tremendous response to Justin Peck’s Year of the Rabbit, we’re pleased to welcome him back to Houston Ballet to create a World Premiere for the company. Look forward to seeing his approach, which is always energetic, current, and focused on the power of the music. Continuing our tradition of bringing Jiří Kylián’s ground-breaking works to Houston like Petite Mort, we’re pleased to present Kylián’s Dream Time. As part of the choreographer’s iconic repertoire at Nederlands Dans Theater, this ballet captures the power of dance to transcend time and communicate across all barriers, beautifully danced to a gorgeous score by the legendary Japanese composer Toru Takemitsu.

We’re excited to bring back Coppélia, a Houston Ballet treasure created by former Artistic Director Ben Stevenson OBE. The story follows charismatic young lovers, Franz and Swanhilda, as they encounter the dollmaker Dr. Coppélius and his creation, the beautiful Coppélia. This lighthearted three-act story ballet, with colorful and charming costume and scenic designs by the legendary Desmond Heeley and a magical score by Léo Delibes, has long been a family favorite for Houstonians of all ages.

The Merry Widow returns to Houston Ballet with a delicious cocktail of witty and intriguing characters based on the famous 1905 operetta by Franz Lehár. Choreographed by longtime friend to the company and esteemed British choreographer Ronald Hynd, this lavish story ballet is filled with rich music and sweeping drama as decadent lives intertwine in early 20th century Europe. When a secret romance is uncovered between Count Danilo and the glamorous, wealthy widow Hanna Glawari (a former peasant girl who’s transformed herself into high society), their homeland and its aristocracy plot to preserve their love affair while also saving themselves and the principality of Pontevedro from bankruptcy. With gorgeous costume and scenic designs by the acclaimed Roberta Guidi di Bagno, The Merry Widow is sure to enthrall audiences with its humor and grandeur.

History becomes HERstory as Marie returns to the Wortham in grand fashion to close our 2018/19 season. The past unfolds in Stanton Welch AM’s dramatic retelling of France’s infamous young monarchs, Marie Antoinette and King Louis XVI. This three-act ballet chronicles the Queen’s tragic life in a time of immense social and political strife for the people of France. Beautifully designed by Kandis Cook, Marie is elegant and extravagant, poignant and powerful, and follows one woman’s complex struggle to protect her family, friends, and nation. With compositions from Shostakovich’s rich body of work, Marie has been performed internationally and remains an example of Welch’s powerful blend of storytelling, artistry, and choreography.
