Verb Ballets will present a private live stream of an all classical ballet program. The company will perform an excerpt from Act III of Raymonda. The excerpt opens with the ensemble dance wearing radiant costumes, full of spirited rhythms and waltzes. This thrilling excerpt features many solos including one of the most beloved, and hardest, in the classical ballet repertoire by the lead ballerina. Also, on the program is the only classical ballet Heinz Poll, founder of Ohio Ballet, ever choreographed: Rococo Variations. Costumed in English-style tutus, this ballet highlights the classical virtuosity of the dancers and the beauty of the score on cello and piano. Ticket link will be provided with a donation of $10 or more by July 31, 2020 at noon.

Due to closures of theatres and large gatherings caused by COVID-19, Verb Ballets continues to look for ways to innovate and bring new dance experiences to the community. For the 2020-21 season, Verb Ballets launched a new series, a new series of private live stream performances called ACCESS/Verb. Classical Variations is the first performance of the ACCESS/Verb series.
