Cocktail Hour: The Show by Ballets with a Twist at Lake Charles Event Center's Rosa Hart Theatre

From coast-to-coast, Ballets with a Twist is turning heads and setting trends with its signature production, Cocktail Hour: The Show. Watch as “Bloody Mary,” “Manhattan,” mocktail “Roy Rogers,” and more spring off the menu and onto the stage in a series of dazzling vignettes. Suitable for audiences of all ages, the fun and fast-paced show transports theatergoers through time and around the world with original choreography, music, and costume design. You’ve never seen ballet like this! 

Cocktail Hour: The Show is slated to close out Banners at McNeese State University’s 2025 Cultural Season. A week of community engagement is planned preceding the May 1st performance. Upon participating in Ballets with a Twist workshops, select dancers from the Lake Charles Dance Academy and the Lake Area Ballet Theatre will have the opportunity to join the professionals onstage. In addition, company composer, Stephen Gaboury, will coach the South Beauregard High School Marching Band to prepare the ensemble for its featured role in opening the May 1 production.
