    "The audience went wild, giving the company a standing ovation. There simply isn't any better way to end a show." -- Pointe Magazine

    Postcards from the BoysEclectic choreographer Sara Slipper was inspired by the plight of the homeless as well as the music of singer songwriters Guy Clark and Darrell Scott in this jazzy, modern, and visually enthralling production of Postcard for the Boys. As The Tennessean wrote, "Nashville Ballet has outdone itself with this show."  

    SattoSalvatore Aiello's sensual adaptation of an Asian legend about an encounter between a wind god and a leaf showcases the extreme athleticism of the dancers. The imagery of the wind swirling the leaf as they sway, intertwine and twist around the to the rhythmic weaving melody of the drum and flute is hypnotic and erotic.

    The Storyteller: Choreographed by Twyla Tharp.
