In the past, the MFB has done full-length ballets that have already been created but not ones that are brand new such as this show and trying to teach the dancers the show has been a challenge. It's been a long and very involved process but it's been really fun and a great learning experience for sure. "We thought this year would be a fun time to try something very new because we've never created a full-length ballet before so we decided to go for it.
"We just thought this was a great idea," Wamsley said. MFB Communications Director Pearl Wamsley described this production as a "learning experience." It's going to be a great combination of classical ballet, new projection and great technical stuff and beautiful music." It adds a lot to the production to have live music. "She created the score specifically for this ballet," Ritter said. The Midland-Odessa Symphony and Chorale will provide the music with Kansas City Ballet Music Instructor Ramona Pansegrau conducting, who also compiled, edited and arranged the music. "It's been a lot of new things for us and we're working with a lot of really talented artist and technical people to pull this off that aren't from around here so I think just the fact that she trusts us to create this work and present her vision to our community is wonderful and I think it's wonderful and for our dancers, it's a unique experience that they can take forward with them in their future dance careers and their life." "I think it's really special that the choreographer trusts us with her vision and trusts us to bring that to life here in the Permian Basin and trusts our dancers throughout this process," Ritter said. The choreography and concept was created by Jill Bahr. "This is brand new and we're the first people to do it and we're really excited about it," Ritter said.
