Join us THIS SATURDAY, July 22nd at 5pm for Farm to Ballet, the dance project intended to celebrate Vermont’s farming culture while expanding classical ballet’s audience.
The project, directed by Chatch Pregger, is a full length production that reinterprets classical ballet choreography to tell the story of a Vermont farm from Spring to Fall. The production starts with the geese returning for the Spring and then the farmer planning out the farm. The subsequent pieces move through the stages of planting, irrigating, tending and then harvesting the farm’s produce. The farmer takes a detour from the crops to work with the animals and celebrate their contributions to our local foods. The production wraps up with a celebratory farmshare pick-up scene before the geese fly back south for the Winter.
The production is performed outside against the beauty of Vermont farms and their surrounding landscape. The performances are fundraisers to support and honor the work of our local farmers and food movement.
