Join the Civic Ballet of San Luis Obispo for the third presentation of their bewitchingly creative adaptation of Arthur Miller’s award winning play, The Crucible.. Artistic Director Drew Silvaggio’s The Crucible is made modern and relevant through Silvaggio’s masterful use of film, video, contemporary music and modern choreography.
Making its debut in the Civic Ballet of SLO’s repertoire as the second act of the gala, La Fille Mal Gardee features classical ballet mixed with folk style dance;, comedy, beautifully detailed characters, and poetic lyricism perfectly suited to its story of young love. In this pastoral comedy, a farmer’s widow is determined to marry her daughter off to a wealthy man’s son rather than to the poor farmer with whom she is head-over-heels smitten. The picture-book countryside setting of maypoles and dancing hens add to the storybook happy ending of this old English tale.
