The Hampton Ballet Theatre School, celebrating 10 years of dance education on the East End, will be performing the enchanting ballet “Peter and the Wolf” on Tuesday, July 26th at 6:00 p.m., at the Children’s Museum of the East End and at the Montauk Playhouse Community Center Foundation at 240 Edgemere Street in Montauk on Thursday, July 28th at 7:00 p.m. This production is a collaboration between the Hampton Ballet Theatre School, the Hampton Festival Orchestra and a surprise, celebrity guest narrator.

“Peter and the Wolf”, choreographed by the director of HBTS, Sara Jo Strickland, along with beautiful costumes by Yuka Silvera, will virtually come alive for the children of the East End community with the orchestra, ballet and narration. The ballet will be danced by the students of the Hampton Ballet Theatre School, who range from 4 to 18 years old.

Guest artist, Adam Baranello, of A&G Dance Company will be dancing the part of the Grandfather. The score will be played by the 25 piece Hampton Festival Orchestra, a group of professional musicians who all hail from the East End and will be conducted by the passionate precision of Dr. Andrew Perea.

This ballet is a treat for all ages, as Sergei Prokovfiev’s famous score introduces all the ballet characters as sounds from musical instruments. You will not want to miss this exciting, educational performance.
