Shortly after the assassination of The Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., Mitchell was inspired to start a school that would offer children — especially those in Harlem, the community in which he was born — the opportunity to learn about dance and the allied arts.

Little Mermaid – An Underwater Adventure

ive into the underwater world of Charlotte Ballet’s Little Mermaid!

The Hans Christian Anderson tale about a curious mermaid longing to leave her ocean home, comes to life with imaginative choreography from Mark Diamond and extraordinary new sets and costumes.

Little Mermaid, first published in 1837, is a fairy tale about a young mermaid willing to give up her life in the sea for the love of a human prince.

“I based my ballet on the original Hans Christian Andersen tale with adaptations that make it possible as a ballet,” said choreographer Mark Diamond. “There are comedic elements and it’s entertaining for the entire family.”

Diamond is collaborating with set designer Howard Jones to create the perfect atmosphere for Little Mermaid.

Act I of the ballet takes place under the sea, with projections designed to transport the audience into a magical underwater world and a cast

of sea creatures including sparkling seahorses, slithering eels and tumbling starfish. The Little Mermaid “swims” through Act I, carried by the Undertow, danced by several male dancers.

Once the Little Mermaid reaches land, she makes her way to the Prince’s Palace, an 1820s estate. Charlotte Ballet Director of Costumes Aimee J. Coleman is designing and creating all new costumes for Little Mermaid.

Her designs for the Prince and his court are inspired by clothing from the late Empire and early Regency era and are influenced by colors of the sea, with beautiful combinations of blue, green and silver. “Even sea shells and sea creatures are used in the details of the costumes,” said Coleman.

Tickets for Little Mermaid are on Photo by Jeff Cravotta sale now. Join us in March and venture with the Little Mermaid as she travels from her underwater home to the majestic Prince’s Palace.

A Tale of Love and Death

I

Opera Carolina's Romeo & Juliet set to break hearts in January the roles. “Juliet begins high and light, but she has to be a dramatic soprano by the end.” Beauty and youth alone aren’t enough.

Uzan is directing a cast of up-andcomers (soprano Marie-Eve Munger and tenor Jonathan Boyd in the leads), but he brings established star power to Charlotte.

The general and artistic director of Opéra de Montréal from 1988 to 2002 is also a librettist (Cyrano) and a novelist (“The Shattered Sky”), and holds a doctorate in literature, theatrical studies and philosophy.

Uzan’s advice to anyone seeing Gounod’s opera for the first time: “Arrive completely open to emotion and sensitivity and pure beauty.”

You already know how it ends. But the passion and drama leading to the poison and dagger – they’re what keep us coming back.

t’s no spoiler to say Romeo and Juliet die in the end. Everyone knows that. The two hopeful lovers end it all because their families can’t get along. Even though we know the outcome, we can’t get enough. Shakespeare’s tragic romance has cast a spell for centuries.

Why is something so bleak so enduring?

“Ah, that’s like asking why love is so enduring,” said Bernard Uzan, the celebrated New York-based director overseeing Opera Carolina’s production.

“What can be more eternal than two young people falling madly in love?”

“True, it doesn’t end well,” Uzan said in his mellifluous French accent. “But dying because of love – isn’t that better than dying of isolation?” Looking on the bright side, Uzan says the couple’s nearly simultaneous deaths mean they’re united for eternity.

The 70-year-old director has helmed Romeo & Juliet “15 or 16 times.” And while the opera’s text doesn’t follow Shakespeare’s exactly, Uzan’s version will be faithful to the spirit of Charles Gounod’s opera.

Uzan’s favorite scene is the wildly passionate balcony scene. (“O Romeo, Romeo! Wherefore art thou, Romeo?”)

He has seen the balcony in Verona that allegedly inspired Shakespeare and reports it’s actually very modest – about 5 feet tall. But audiences want a tall balcony, and this production won’t disappoint. It’s a more romantic (if inaccurate) 9 feet high.

He said casting two people who can credibly pull off the leads is essential.

“They’re supposed to be 18,” he said.

“They have to look young.” But more importantly, they have to be able to sing

About 200 pounds of dry ice is used per show!
