Omaha Theatre Ballet Presents THE RAINFOREST, 2/11-2/21
The Omaha Theater Ballet will present its final production, The Rainforest, on The Rose Theater's main stage February 11th-21st. Audiences will be both entertained and inspired by this original ballet choreographed by the Ballet's Artistic Director Robin Welch.
Welch chose the rainforest theme for the Company's last ballet in hopes of creating awareness for a cause that is close to her heart - rainforest conservation. While Welch hopes to inspire change, she also wants to entertain and delight audiences. A giant anteater will guide audiences through this action-packed production that showcases the colorful scenery and inhabitants of this beautiful, perilousl world. Vibrant choreography, stunning sets and intricate costumes bring the Amazon rainforest to life.
The Rainforest will be presented February 11 through February 21 on The Rose's main stage with performances every Thursday, Friday and Saturday at 7 p.m.; Saturday and Sunday at 2 p.m. The show is recommended for children ages 5 to adult, and will run 60 minutes without intermission on Thursdays, February 11 and 18. The production will run 90 minutes with intermission for all other performances.
The Rose's 2009/2010 season is sponsored by Children's Hospital & Medical Center. The Rainforest is sponsored by Holland Foundation, Whitmore Charitable Trust, KAT 103 and the Nebraska Arts Council.
