Ballet on the Big Screen Presents “Les Patineurs” (The Skaters)

Marblehead School of Ballet presents on Sunday, December 15 from 2:00 p.m. to 4:15 p.m. the last show in The Big Screen series, Royal Ballet’s “Les Patineurs” (The Skaters) and other works created by choreographer Sir Frederick Ashton, at the studio located at 115 Pleasant Street in Marblehead, Massachusetts.  In 1937, Ashton choreographed this work for Royal Ballet’s predecessor, the Vic-Wells Ballet, in England.  Set on a frozen pond, couples and groups of friends skate throughout the afternoon.  Watch the dancers perform Constant Lambert’s setting of Giacomo Meyerbeer’s brilliant music.  This work is the perfect piece to get into the holiday spirit.

Dancers, dance aficionados, friends, and families are welcome to attend the program.  Join MSB’s director, Paul K. Shiff, in a discussion about Ashton’s ballets.  Admission is $10 per person.  To attend the program, register in advance online at bit.ly/MSBClassSchedule, contact msb@havetodance.com or call 781-631-6262.
