NASHVILLE, Tenn. – April 22, 2024 -- Nashville Ballet has announced the phenomenal lineup for their 2024-25 Season under the artistic direction of Nick Mullikin. The new season will showcase exceptional works loaded with exhilarating experiences, thought-provoking narratives, and fan-favorite classics as season ticket packages are now available.
Nashville Ballet will present beloved classical stories including Artistic Director Emeritus Paul Vasterling’s Emmy Award-winning Nashville’s Nutcracker, Dracula with George Balanchine’s Serenade, and The Sleeping Beauty – all set to music performed by an award-winning orchestra – The Nashville Symphony.
Audiences will enjoy contemporary masterpieces featuring two world premieres, starting with the production of Frida & Diego’s Dia de los Muertos, choreographed by NB2 Director Maria Konrad, that will celebrate life and death, family bonds, and shared humanity. In addition, the company’s annual Attitude series will feature three powerful pieces, one being a world premiere by Artistic Director Nick Mullikin, that brings awareness to the difficult topic of addiction as it weaves a story of struggle, hope, and connection through breathtaking dance.
“These carefully curated series of works are built around the idea of capturing your imagination,” said Nick Mullikin, Artistic Director and CEO. “The purpose of art is to inspire us, heighten our emotions, and give a visceral experience that enters our memories and reminds us that we are humans who feel.”
