About the Performance:
In a world where imagination is fading, a young boy named Bastian discovers a mysterious book that draws him into the magical realm of Fantasia—a land threatened by a consuming force known only as The Nothing. As Bastian reads, he becomes entwined with the journey of Atreyu, a brave warrior tasked with saving Fantasia and its Childlike Empress.
Through a series of evocative dance sequences, the concert explores themes of courage, grief, wonder, and transformation. Atreyu’s encounters with mythical beings—Morla the Ancient One, the luckdragon Falkor, and the terrifying Gmork—are brought to life through dynamic choreography and shifting visual landscapes. Each movement piece reflects the emotional stakes of the story: the loss of Artax in the Swamps of Sadness, the trials of the Southern Oracle, and the revelation that Fantasia can only be saved by a human child’s belief.
Also featuring mixed repertoire by Malinda LaVelle.
