Once upon a time, in a world of shimmering melodies and wondrous dreams, a tale of transformation, love, and a missing slipper unfolds in Prokofiev’s ballet, Cinderella. We are joined once again by the Saint Louis Ballet under the direction of Gen Horiuchi in this audience-favorite fairy tale. From romantic duets and dizzying waltzes to the silly antics of the loathsome stepsisters, Cinderella is full of moments that charm and delight, and you’ll be swept away in a dream come true at our stunning season finale. Just remember to be home by midnight!

We can’t think of a more wonderful way to finish our 90th Anniversary Season than with another collaboration with the outstanding Saint Louis Ballet – this time featuring several different dances with jazzy music by some of the greatest Broadway composers, including George Gershwin and Richard Rodgers. Don’t miss this opportunity to see the Springfield Symphony team up again with one of the best ballet companies of the Midwest.

‘S Wonderful

Seduction. Deception. Madness!  This masterwork of the 19th century is technically difficult and wildly emotional.  Magical and ghostly, Giselle has been performed by all of the world’s great ballet companies.
