Really enjoyed the program and the creativity of the various dances.
This was a great production. We caught the last performance on Sunday (buying tickets late Saturday night) as we had been too busy with some important matters to have scheduled attendance earlier. I have multiple books, sheet music and videos of the story and now can add this production to my experience catalogue. GREAT!!!
This is hands down the best ballet I’ve ever been to. The score was so moving and the athleticism of the choreography was breathtaking. You could tell the team worked with the creators of Cirque du Soleil to bring a unique take on set design, lighting and choreography. Could not have loved it more!!! This is a must see!
This show was awesome! My 7 year old really enjoyed it as well.
Alice in Winderland was my first ever ballet and it was amazing. The dancers are incredible and the music and storyline were fantastic.
Alice in Wonderland was an absolute treat for the eyes and ears - the choreography was playful and a joy to watch, the music was delightful, and the costumes and sets absolutely amazing. This is a ballet that can be enjoyed by all, regardless of age!
With the exception of the Nutcracker, I don't normally attend the ballet. My daughter really wanted to see this, so I agreed. I'm so glad I did! From beginning to end, this show was pure delight. Beyond entertaining, it was rapturous. The dancers were extraordinary. From leads to minor dancers, all were amazing, professional, and exuded fun and confidence. Catch this performance if you can!
What an amazing performance! OBT did things I have never seen them do before, and I loved it!
This is truly an unforgettable show! Every moment full of action and fun. Definitely great for everyone. The dancers are amazing and the sets are fantastic. It's definitely something you don't want to miss.
The play was great but entirely too many children from their school. For those prices we want to see professional dancers not the campers or whatever they were. It was cute the first time but the kids are a theme in every skit. Really got old after awhile. Otherwise the dancers were all great my fave was queen of hearts. The set design and costumes were spectacular. Just too many adolescents trying to be cute. If you’re the parents of a kid in the show you will undoubtedly like it but for everyone else it’s exasperating.
The dancing! The costumes! The music! The orchestra! Bring the kids.
Alice (in Wonderland) performed by Portland's Oregon Ballet Theater was a very enjoyable event. I recommend it highly. To convey through dance a story with such technical challenges and present it without spoken lines or electronic special effects was a feat of artistic genius.
Stylistic and highly imaginative, OBT's ALICE IN WONDERLAND is an exceptional local offering. Modern without being pretentious, it showcases the talents of a fine crew of dancers, from, well, they are ballet dancers so one can not say, "...from small to large". Possibly "...from young to slightly older", would be more accurate. The special effects were quite lovely, enhancing rather than upstaging the dancers. Breathtaking is a word that comes to mind. There were a few too many flamingos than one might think strictly necessary, and the segment featuring them tends to run a bit long, but it is a small nit to pick in an otherwise fabulous production. Go see it. It will make you happy.
Beautiful show with talented dancers and orchestra. The simplicity and elegance was amazing as were the ingenious ways they accomplished the storytelling. I loved the variety of the cast and that there were so many male dancers. My children loved it as much as my husband and I. Thank you for a wonderful evening!
From the simple set to the eye catching costumes, the visual appeal of this production was sensational. Witnessing the talent of adult dancers along with up-coming dancers and the adorable budding dancers was so exciting. I loved it all.
Loved the production, dancers, sets and costumes were wonderful. Lighthearted and Whimsical. Had a wonderful time.
So perfectly played out. Was incredibly creative with musical choices and costumes! Absolutely loved it, having live Orchestra present adds so much richness to it!!
It was an all around awesome experience that I would highly recommend! This was my first ballet adendance and it has me wanting more!
I have been to a dozen nutcracker performances over the years. Up until last week, it has been 7 or 8 years since we have attended a nutcracker performance. We were very impressed by the sets, the costumes, the dancing the the choreography. This is a shout out to the best performance we have seen of the Nutcracker. Bravo!
The dancers were absolutely wonderful and this is a treasured holiday tradition!
