Ballet 5:8 brings Sandra Cisneros’s classic novel to life through dance.

Choreographed by Julianna Rubio Slager, the ballet blends classical and contemporary movement with music to explore themes of culture, community, and hope.A copy of The House on Mango Street will be provided to attendees. The free books are made possible by a grant from the National Endowmnet for the Arts that was awarded to Ballet 5:8. Copies available while supplies last.
