Event Details
Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring shocked the world at its 1913 Paris premiere, sparking a riot with its groundbreaking music and radical dance. Now, GLCO and DEOS Contemporary Ballet bring this legendary work to life with a newly commissioned world-premiere choreography, created exclusively for northern Michigan audiences.
This electrifying performance will transport you to the revolutionary soundscapes of early 20th-century Paris. Don’t miss this once-in-a-lifetime reimagining of a masterpiece that changed the course of music history!
The evening continues with high-energy summer rhythms including Márquez’s Danzón No. 2 and Bernstein’s Mambo from West Side Story—plus a surprise community guest artist you won’t want to miss!
