PERFORMING ARTS CENTER

Dear Patron of the Arts, Welcome to The Sharon® L. Morse Performing Arts Center!

Much like the building’s namesake, my grandmother, Sharon L. Morse, we love all varieties of the performing arts here. It is in her memory that I, along with my amazing team of artists and arts administrators, strive to bring many different types of the highest quality entertainment here to The Sharon.

Since opening in 2015, we have strived to establish your trust, that a show at The Sharon is a show worth seeing. Perhaps you find yourself here today to see a concert of one of your favorite musicians, or to take in the national tour of a Broadway show. Either way, we encourage you to consider trying out a new show that perhaps you haven’t heard of before, knowing that it has been intentionally curated by our team.

We welcome you to The Sharon: a place for you to see an old favorite, but also a place to discover your new favorite. I sincerely hope you enjoy the show today, and I look forward to seeing you here again soon!

See You at The Sharon,

Whitney Morse Artistic Director

NATIONAL BALLET OF UKRAINE Experience the magic of the National Ballet of Ukraine, one of the world’s top ballet companies and the country’s official ballet company on their premiere tour of the United States, first time in over 30 years since the dissolution of the USSR. Straight from the historic Taras Shevchenko National Opera House in Kyiv, these world-class dancers will captivate you with a stunning program featuring timeless classics, including “The Dying Swan,” “Don Quixote,” and “Giselle.” The program tells stories of love, loss, and triumph, leaving you mesmerized by the company’s unparalleled grace and strength. Prepare to be swept away as the dancers defy gravity, their bodies soaring high above the stage with dance movements filled with intensity, emotion and perfect harmony.

Joining the National Ballet of Ukraine on this ground­breaking tour are the Ukrainian Shumka Dancers, an internationally renowned Ukrainian folk dance ensemble. Established in 1959, Shumka has dazzled audiences for decades with its electrifying blend of traditional dance, music, and storytelling. The word “Shumka” means “whirlwind” in Ukrainian, a fitting description for the group’s high-energy performances that combine precise footwork, gravity-defying jumps, and an infectious vitality that pulses through every movement.

In a first-of-its-kind experience, prepare to be immersed in a breathtaking fusion of dance and technology as the 44 incredible artists perform in front of a massive cutting-edge 3D LED screen with groundbreaking technology that makes the audience feel as if they are traveling onto the stage and become one with the spectacular scenery. This revolutionary backdrop brings the beauty and spirit of Ukraine to life. A celebration of Ukrainian culture and resilience, where each leap, spin, and lift symbolize the indomitable spirit of a nation.

The tour also serves a greater purpose: supporting the war-torn nation of Ukraine as it courageously faces the ongoing Russian invasion. Portions of the proceeds from the tour—from ticket purchases, merchandise, and individual donations— will benefit HUMANITE and Ukraine House, an organization dedicated to restoring and improving the lives of Ukrainian families affected by the war.

Join us for a night of passion, hope, and the tireless spirit of Ukraine as the National Ballet of Ukraine and Shumka Dancers bring their extraordinary talent and heart to the stage. Let their artistry lift your spirit, inspire your soul, and remind you of the power of art in the face of adversity.
