Roxey Ballet's Carmen

Azusa Okamoto dancing the role of "Michela"

The Roxey Ballet Company wants to invite you to come and join our beautiful evening of "Carmen" and "Frida Kahlo"! For the 2020 season, our professional dance troupe will highlight strong and powerful women and their stories.

"Carmen" is a sensually vivid and passionate story of freedom, love, betrayal, and treachery loosely based on the fabled temptress of Seville. The story follows the downward spiral of Carmen. "Frida Kahlo" on the other hand, is based on the life of a Mexican Artist Frida Kahlo herself incorporating Mexican folk music and dance to depict her life of struggle and strength after being resigned to a wheel chair from a bus accident, which left her paralyzed. 

The evening will also include a guest performances by Lisa Botalico, a world class flamenco dancer with pre-professional trainee dancers of the Roxey Ballet in partnership with The Mill Ballet School to round out the evening.
