WINSTON-SALEM FESTIVAL BALLET BRINGS THE RHYTHMS OF THE CITY TO THE HANESBRANDS IN METROPOLIS


Director Gary Taylor brings the dynamic rhythms of the city together with original music from local composers in Winston-Salem Festival Ballet’s METROPOLIS. This original ballet returns to the Hanesbrands Theatre, 209 N Spruce St., Winston-Salem, running March 21-22, 28-29 at 8:00PM and March 23 & 30 at 2:00PM. Tickets are available through the Hanesbrands Box Office and may be purchased by calling (336) 747‐1414, by visiting http://rhodesartscenter.tix.com, or in person at the Box Office. Tickets are $23.50 General Admission or $18.50 for Children, Students, and Seniors, with $10 student rush tickets available one hour prior to performances.

Everyone has a story. From the business professional to the construction worker, the office administrator to the person who desire to live in an urban environment outweighs they way his tiny apartment drives him crazy, we all have connections and relationships that make us significant our own ways. METROPOLIS features original music by Triad-area composers Chris Heckman, Eric Schwartz, John Wilson, and Tracy Thornton.

We’ve transformed the Winston’s mainstay Hanesbrands Theatre in order to pull the audience into the action and make the story more real. New seating arrangements and observations angles enable the audience to observe and experience the show in new and enlivening ways. The movement and the action are up close and personal, just like the city itself.
