Mowgli (April 23 & 24), based on Rudyard Kipling's Jungle Book, depicts a young man raised by wolves and tempered by the dangers of the jungle. Mowgli struggles to find his way back to the village populated by this own kind. Mark Roxeys virtuosic choreography melds perfectly against the vivid sets that capture the wildness of the protagonist. An evocative score by Czech composer Milan Svoboda mingles traditional orchestration with anthemic set pieces that draw on European pop music. Mowgli is a family-friendly performance for children of all ages communicating that one should let go of one's fears and move forward. Graduation Ball (April 23 & 24) is a one act ballet first presented by the original Ballet Russe at the Theatre Royal, Sydney, Australia, on March 1, 1940. The ballet is set in a fashionable Viennese school for girls during the 1840s. The headmistress has invited the cadets of the city's military academy to attend a ball celebrating the graduation of the senior class. The senior and junior girls have planned a series of divertissements as the evening's entertainment and are greatly excited by the event. Flirtations, exuberant dances, and a secret romance ensue.
