The versatile ABA dancers bring to life the captivating journey of Christina, a young girl passionately pursuing her love for visual art and dance. As Christina immerses herself in the masterpieces of the world’s greatest artists, her imagination takes flight. Each interaction with these iconic paintings coming to life transports her to a vivid realm where she experiences and comprehends the rich narratives they hold. Through these extraordinary connections, Christina discovers the profound beauty of art and the power of creation with each delicate brushstroke.


"Dance of the Hours", a captivating short ballet that serves as the Act 3 finale of the opera La Gioconda, composed by Amilcare Ponchielli. This enchanting ballet vividly depicts the hours of the day through a series of mesmerizing solo and ensemble dances. The timeless beauty of Ponchielli's music, combined with the elegance and grace of the dancers, creates an unforgettable experience. First performed in 1876 and revised in 1880, La Gioconda and its iconic "Dance of the Hours" have left an indelible mark on the world of ballet. Over the years, this ballet has been celebrated and performed countless times, earning its place as one of the most beloved and frequently showcased ballets in history.

Prepare to be transported through the passage of time as the dancers bring each hour of the day to life, capturing the essence of every moment with their artistry and precision. Let the magic unfold, guided by the beauty of ballet, in this mesmerizing performance that celebrates the boundless wonders of creativity.
