    Not what I expected

    by AmandaGor on 3/20/17McAllen Performing Arts Center - McAllen

    I was disappointed. The dancers were out of sync, you could see them struggling in their faces and movements. There were 4 outstanding dancers, but the rest looked like amateurs and ruined the experience of group dancing.

    Amazing Dance

    by ArtistinTraining on 3/26/13Jo Long Theatre - San Antonio

    This was an amazing ballet! Choreography was excellent. Dancers were all amazing and sitting on the 2nd row, I could actually see their muscles quivering while holding the poses. I cannot wait until the next ballet.

    Not what I expected

    by KaliWally on 3/15/12Lila Cockrell Theater - San Antonio

    I must admit, I expected more. There was very little dance. The story did not protray the tragic and cursed character of Dracula - the undead. The final scene could have been much more stirring in Dracula's death - showing his agony through dance as he leaves this existence and eventually finds peace in death - just think of the death scene in the silent Nosferatu as the count dies from the rays of the rising sun. This was my first exposure to the San Antonio Ballet, and although there is a lot of talent with the dancers, it wasn't displayed on stage. Recorded music does not help. For the truely inspired performance of a world class dancer, the music must be alive, allowing the dancer to display his/her true skill and artistry in exhibiting the energy, excitment, thrill, and passion of of the dance on stage. Recorded music does not allow that. I understand this is a money issue, but the live dance is not complete without the live music.

    The Dracula performance was absolutely fantastic!! Me and my daughter just loved it. It had everything what a ballet should have, grace, definition, eloquence and exceptional dancers and performers. I'd recommend it to everyone of all ages!!!

    Something Different but very enjoyable.

    by DancerD on 10/20/11Lila Cockrell Theater - San Antonio

    Being a Dancer myself I was extremely excited to watch the show. There wasn't as much dancing as I had expected and the stage set up was very simple. But it was elegantly put on and was enjoyable to watch. I was surprised that the so called "principle dancer' did not dance as much as one of the other male dancers who played "John" he was an astounding dancer and should of been recognized for his efforts.

    Dracula was memorable

    by jlopez33 on 10/19/11Lila Cockrell Theater - San Antonio

    The costumes and dancers were incredible. There could have been a little more scary tactics, like more smoke, a little blood, or even more dramatic music.

    Bram Stoker would be proud.

    by bejayintex on 10/19/11Lila Cockrell Theater - San Antonio

    The performance left me wondering at times, how did they do that. The dancers were graceful and left me wanting to see more.

    Dracula was superb

    by Kaisiem on 10/18/11Lila Cockrell Theater - San Antonio

    This was my first time to see the San Antonio ballet, and I was not sure how it would be. I have seen a lot of world-class ballets over the years, so was not sure how it would stack up. However I thoroughly enjoyed it and thought the dancing and choreography was excellent. The dancing was able to convey in various ways exactly the plot and the emotions of the cast. The two male soloists were strong dancers, and Ian Morris in particular showed strength moves usually reserved for Ice Skaters. Overall a great performance, and one I would highly recommend. I will definitely go to see this ballet company again.
