Ballet Evolution: Dance Macabre

October 20, 2018 @ 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm UTC+0

$20 – $50

The notorious tales of Charleston ghosts are brought to life in an all-new thrilling ballet, “Dance Macabre”. The dancers of Ballet Evolution will embody some of the Lowcountry’s most infamous spirits. There’s Madame Talvande, who ran her strict and rigid school for girls at the Sword-Gates House on Legare Street; and Lavinia Fisher, the deranged motel owner who poisoned her guests and was eventually hanged for her crimes in the Old City Jail. Join us as these stories, and more, are brought from the graveyards to the stage in this chilling new ballet. Musical selections by Franz Schubert, Camille Saint-Saëns, and Felix Mendelssohn will serve as a haunting score to the stories of the past.

Performances of “Dance Macabre” made possible by a generous sponsorship from The Gaylord and Dorothy Donnelley Foundation.

“Dance Macabre”– World Premiere Ballet with Live Chamber Ensemble                      Group rates available by calling 843-864-4809
