New ballet brings storybook to stage

DeKALB – The Beth Fowler Dance Company of Genoa and St Charles will present a new original dance production, "A Storybook Ballet," March 15 through 17 at The Egyptian Theatre in DeKalb.

As the curtain opens, young Marie is getting ready for bed. As she falls asleep, four fairies fly into the room and spin her bed. She falls into a magical dream where the storybook grows to 10 feet high. Snow White and her friends step out of the book, and the bedroom is transformed into the forest where Snow White meets the Seven Dwarfs and is frightened by the Jealous Queen before being saved by her Prince.

Delighted by the happy ending, Marie turns the page and is greeted by The Little Mermaid and her sisters. Marie’s bedroom turns into an undersea scene, where The Little Mermaid is saved by her Prince from the Sea Witch’s evil spell.
