Ballet Arizona’s The Four Seasons, a ballet depicting a journey in movement through spring, summer, autumn and winter, is making its triumphant return this May at the annual ‘An Evening at Desert Botanical Garden’ event. Arizonans are invited to a night of ballet surrounded by the matchless desert landscape and setting sun from May 15 through June 1, 2024.
Set to the vibrant score of Antonio Vivaldi, The Four Seasons was choreographed by acclaimed Artistic Director, Ib Andersen, and premiered in 2021. With costumes designed and hand-painted by Andersen, this production is truly an artistic labor of love. Andersen’s previous work at the Garden inspired The New York Times former chief dance critic, Alastair Macaulay, to designate Ballet Arizona as “one of the most enterprising companies anywhere.” Past Desert Botanical Garden debuts Eroica, Topia and Round have drawn critical acclaim, with sellout crowds at nearly every performance.
Tickets for The Four Seasons are available now and expected to sell out. All 14 performances begin at 8 p.m. at the Desert Botanical Garden. Tickets start at $60. Arrive early and watch the professional company take ballet class on stage. A gourmet picnic menu is available for purchase including beer, wine and non-alcoholic refreshments. For the best tickets and prices, always purchase directly from Ballet Arizona at balletaz.org.
Ballet Arizona will present its momentous 2021-2022 season, celebrating a revival from the pandemic and overcoming the pause in arts programs across the nation. The season will mark the 36th year for Arizona's official ballet company as well as the first full lineup after the pandemic.
Ballet Arizona returns to the Desert Botanical Garden stage with The Four Seasons, a journey in movement through winter, spring, summer and fall.
Due to ongoing concerns related to COVID-19, Ballet Arizona announced a departure from the company's previously planned 35th Anniversary fall season of main-stage performances. Director's Choice, Giselle and the beloved annual production of The Nutcracker have been removed from the performance calendar and a more digitally focused fall season is planned.
Ballet Arizona will present its historic 2020-2021 season. The season will mark the 35th year for Arizona's official ballet company and will include captivating performances, including a world premiere from heralded Artistic Director Ib Andersen.
Ballet Arizona will present The Four Seasons, a journey through winter, spring, summer and fall in movement, May 19-June 6 at Desert Botanical Garden for the company's annual season-concluding performance of An Evening at Desert Botanical Garden.
Desert Botanical Garden is at 1201 N. Galvin Pkwy, Phoenix, AZ.
