Eugene Ballet will conclude its season with a special performance featuring 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' and 'Silk & Steel', chosen by outgoing artistic director Toni Pimble. This event marks her retirement after 46 years, highlighting her significant impact as Oregon's leading ballet choreographer. 'Silk & Steel' is characterized by its vibrant visuals and musicality, while 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' brings Shakespeare's enchanting tale to life. Former principal dancer Suzanne Haag emphasizes this performance as a celebration of Pimble's remarkable vision and leadership.
This evening will be a heartfelt celebration of Toni's extraordinary vision and a perfect finale to a remarkable chapter in Eugene Ballet's story.
The effort required tenacity, vision, passion, and a continual flow of partners and collaborators.
Set to a compilation of early European music, Silk & Steel embodies the theatrical side of Pimble's choreography and expansive musical sensibility.
The fanciful A Midsummer Night's Dream brings a fantastical forest to life, making it a fitting swan song to Pimble's 46-year career.
