ON STAGE AT MEAFORD HALL

The Nutcracker – Ontario Ballet

November 28, 2008

Ontario Ballet Theatre’s The Nutcracker has been recreated in the grand style of the original Kirov version. This 90-minute masterpiece is ballet’s most popular and enchanting classic. The plot satisfies one of our basic emotional needs: it appeals not only to children, but to the child-like belief we all share that good will triumph over evil and that things truly will turn out for the best. Tchaikovsky’s score is a marvel, a miracle of classical form, imagination, melody, and orchestral colour, with a deep spiritual undercurrent. With glorious costumes, three full-scene backdrops and a company of up to 24 professional dancers, Ontario Ballet Theatre’s The Nutcracker has already swept audiences off their feet all over Ontario.

“An ideal introduction to ballet for those who have not learned its delights.”- The Toronto Star

This enchanting show is part of the Meaford Hall & Culture Foundation’s Annual Christmas Celebration. The Gala evening begins with a reception at 7pm, followed by the Ballet at 8pm. A silent auction of lovely and festive seasonal items continues throughout the evening.

Tickets $35.

Romanza

December 13, 2008

Romanza is returning to Meaford Hall! Philip Grant, Todd Jang and Frederik Robert have been identified as “three talented, young, classically trained lyric tenors who have separately been delighting audiences across North America and Europe.” These three brilliant tenors infuse their performances with their offstage camaraderie, and warm the audience with their intimacy and humour. Romanza has taken tenor repertoire to new heights by re-invigorating opera hits, Italian favourites, popular folksongs and well-loved ballads with their own irresistible and original arrangements for the contemporary audience. Romanza is the real deal. Authentic. Talented. Genuine.

Showtime 8pm

Tickets $40
