WHAT'S HAPPENING BEHIND THE SCENES
“When I heard that Silvio Amato composed the original musical score for The Wonderful Wizard of Oz I knew I had to get tickets. Jacqueline Colledge’s choreography paired with Silvio Amato’s enchanting melodies is a ballet I do not not want to miss.”

“
My inspiration for creating the Wonderful Wizard of Oz actually came from my grandson who had suggested the story for a new ballet.

“Before roles were assigned I had set an intention to become more in-tune with my natural feeling. Now as the tinman, who yearns for a heart, It’ll be exciting to embark on this journey alongside the production of this ballet.”

“The role of scarecrow just feels right. I think we can all relate to feeling a little clumsy and a little clueless at times. I am super excited to embrace the character and add a little of myself to the role.”
STEPHEN KESSLER
The biggest challenge I have faced is to keep the sophistication of classical ballet traditions and create the charm and magic children will expect. I'm thrilled to say that I have achieved just that!"
