Performed by the highly acclaimed Ballet Chicago Studio Company, this exciting program brings to Chicago audiences the return of Artistic Director Daniel Duell’s Hansel and Gretel, two world premieres by Ballet Chicago Resident Choreographer Ted Seymour, and the seminal Balanchine masterpiece, Concerto Barocco.
