Arts Ballet Theatre of FL: Firebird Classical & Neoclassical Ballets

Arts Ballet Theatre of Florida opens its 2025-2026 Season with a dynamic evening of classical and neoclassical works. The program begins with “Glinka Suite Fantastique” by Vladimir Issaev, a stylish neoclassical piece for a small ensemble that showcases technical brilliance and musicality. Next is the elegant “Talisman Pas de Deux”, a classical gem set in mythological India, followed by Vicente Nebrada’s vibrant “Double Clef”, where 13 couples—each representing a different musical instrument or orchestra section—bring Benjamin Britten’s score to life. The evening culminates with Issaev’s spectacular “Firebird”, a magical tale of love and triumph set to Stravinsky’s thrilling music. Featuring dazzling costumes, new sets, and special effects, Firebird is a feast for the senses and a triumphant finale to a remarkable performance.
