Description
MOTHER’S DAY WEEKEND: Saddle up to experience an unforgettable adventure. Ballet Fantastique’s As You Like It: A Wild West Ballet is a bold, high-spirited twist on one of the most classic love stories of all time—with cowboy boots, barroom brawls, and a hoedown finale.
Choreographed by dynamic mother-daughter duo Donna and Hannah Bontrager, this unique dance theater original features a cinematic, genre-fusing custom Wild West score for BFan by Grammy®-nominated international composer Juan Luqui (Netflix, Hulu, Nat Geo, Playstation). And in a one-of-a-kind twist, the whole story is hilariously narrated in Shakespearean verse—delivered with a Western drawl by the sharp-tongued Touchstone (with UO Shakespeare professors Lynn Freitas and Rachel Hanan). No advance reading required.
