The Wizard of Oz is a truly magical ballet, filled with all the familiarity of the classic movie, plus all the spectacle worthy of Las Vegas. It is a perfect finale to NBT’s 2022-23 Season. Choreographer Septime Webre’s wildly popular Alice (in Wonderland) made Vegas audiences jump to their feet and roar with delight in 2019, and now he has fashioned an eye-popping journey to the Emerald City for us to enjoy. Heartfelt and adventurous, The Wizard of Oz is chock-full of joyful dancing, fanciful costumes, stellar stagecraft, a wonderful score and, of course, flying monkeys.
With over 50 dancers in hundreds of costumes and hundreds of pointe shoes – some of them made of rubies! – The Wizard of Oz is not your ordinary ballet experience. This amazing performance will change how you think of ballet as it amazes your senses and fills your heart with joy. Prepare to be swept up in the adventure of a lifetime!
