After last year’s success, Ballet Fantastique’s Babes in Toyland: A Holiday Story is back for another Thanksgiving Weekend, Nov. 25–26, in the Hult Center’s Silva Concert Hall, where audiences can enjoy this newest holiday tradition in Eugene.
With their original jazz ballet Babes in Toyland (as featured in Pointe Magazine), Ballet Fantastique mother-daughter team and Choreographer-Producers Donna Marisa and Hannah Bontrager reimagine a lost holiday story with new choreography, classic jazz, and a retroglam holiday aesthetic. Hot big band jazz—played in Silva Concert Hall with live guest vocalists—and splashy, genre-defying dance.
