Ballet Meets Johnny Cash

The music of Johnny Cash will take centre stage as Ballet Kelowna brings 150 Moves to the Frank Venables Theatre on Sunday February 12.

 In Studies of Cash, the Company pays tribute to country legend Johnny Cash. With a heart-rending mix of Cash recordings, choreographer Simone Orlando’s soulful, stylistic work explores some of the country musician’s most famous songs.

 Folk dance, country music and rhythm ‘n’ blues will be experienced in a unique combination of ballet and the works of Johnny Cash. Country fans have the rare opportunity to see their genre of music come to life on an evening you wont want to miss.

 Studies of Cash is one of five pieces which together create Ballet Kelowna’s 150 Moves: A Celebration of Canadian Dance. Other pieces include Romeo and Juliette, choreographed by Joshua Beamish and Canadiana Suite featuring the music of Canadian legend Oscar Peterson.

Ballet Kelowna takes the stage Sunday February 12th at 7:00 at the Frank Venables Theatre, 6100 Gala St, (corner of Fairview Rd) Oliver. Tickets are available online at venablestheatre.ca, at the Theatre Box Office and at Beyond Bliss. For information, please visit our website or call (250) 498-1626.
