CINCINNATI – Immerse yourself in the chivalry and magic of King Arthur’s legendary Camelot with Cincinnati Ballet’s world premiere of King Arthur’s Camelot. Relive the elegance and charm of Princess Diana as the world-renowned exhibit Diana: a celebration makes its final stop at Cincinnati Museum Center. Together these experiences will delight and inspire you, and through Cincinnati Museum Center and Cincinnati Ballet’s Royal Weekend package, you can experience both for just $60.
The highlight of Cincinnati Ballet’s 50th Anniversary Season is the world premiere of King Arthur’s Camelot on February 13. The exhilarating legend of Camelot comes to life in a way you’ve never seen before – because it’s never been done as a ballet before. King Arthurs’s Camelot features a brand new score composed for this production by John Estacio, performed live by the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, and new choreography by Artistic Director & CEO Victoria Morgan. Come along on a mystical journey to another time and place where lover and honor are at stake.
After Camelot has captured your imagination, let Princess Diana capture your heart. A ballerina in her younger years, Diana was a ballet supporter all her life. The exhibition Diana: a celebration will inspire and enamor you as it takes you through nine galleries containing 150 objects, including her royal wedding gown, 28 of her designer dresses, family heirlooms and two of her tiaras. Relive the life of the people’s princess from her days as a schoolgirl and ballerina to her royal wedding watched by millions to her charity work that championed early childhood education and those ravaged by landmines and AIDS. Through her philanthropic outreach, Diana touched people emotionally and physically who were shunned or forgotten by much of the world. Experience the extraordinary life of the late Princess of Wales as Diana: a celebration concludes its world tour at Cincinnati Museum Center.
