A Glimpse of the Art Behind the Performance

The Orlando Ballet owes a large part of its celebrated success to the passion and dedication of its art director, Robert Hill, as well as the talent and hard work of its brightest dancers. Hill took over creative operations in 2009. He himself was a principal dancer with the

New York City Ballet

and

American Ballet Theatre,

to name a couple. Some past performances of the Orlando Ballet illustrating Hill's influence were

Peter and the Wolf

, a classic fairy tale with rich music and animated choreography, and

Carmina Burana,

a sensual dance presented against the backdrop of a large vocal chorus. The Orlando Ballet, in keeping with an annual ritual, continues to present

The Nutcracker

every holiday season. A few notable dancers are

Broadway Musical

Billy Elliot

finalist Arcadian Broad, 2013 American Dance Competition silver medalist Ashley Bazto and Kirov Academy graduate Anita Boer.
