DE LA DANCE COMPANY PRESENTS

THE WORLD PREMIER OF FRANKENSTEIN  

AS A THRILLING START TO THE

2024-2025 SEASON

​

Discover the harrowing story of Victor Frankenstein from his childhood to his astounding scientific fabrication of life and the ensuing consequences. Choreographed by Mario de la Nuez with Meridith Benson, this brand-new production is the first of its kind in Cincinnati and is sure to excite audiences.

 

Following this premier, we return with the beloved The Nutcracker, Jazzed Up! This lively twist on the traditional ballet, featuring music by Pytor Ilych Tchaikovsky, Duke Ellington, and Billy Strayhorn, is a fun family favorite during the holidays.

​​

In the spring, DE LA DANCE COMPANY hosts DanceCincinnati25. This eclectic program boasts dancers and organizations from across the region with select performances held at Playhouse in the Park. Join us for an evening filled with many new works, as well as the return of Meridith Benson's exhilarating Bizet and Anna Leithart's powerful A Willing Spirit.

​

Closing out the 2024-2025 Season is Giselle, a tale of the enduring power of love. Honoring the original choreography of Jean Coralli and Jules Perrot from 1841, we follow the young peasant girl, Giselle, as she falls in love, faces a painful betrayal of trust, joins the formidable undead Willis, and ultimately chooses forgiveness and love over all.

​

DE LA DANCE COMPANY's 2024-2025 season holds much to anticipate for all audiences. We invite you to join us in celebrating the beauty and transformative power of dance. Come and experience it for yourself!
