Embers & Echos: A Night of Carmen & Bolero

Join Palmetto Ballet Theatre for Embers & Echos, a breathtaking evening that seamlessly blends classical beauty with contemporary power.

Palmetto Ballet Theatre presents a dynamic split-bill performance featuring two powerful works: Carmen and Boléro. Together, these ballets explore passion, fate, seduction, and intensity through bold choreography by resident choreographer, Simone Cuttino, and unforgettable music.

Carmen tells the story of a fiercely independent woman whose beauty and spirit captivate everyone around her. Set to the iconic music of Georges Bizet, the ballet unfolds with drama, desire, jealousy, and tragedy.

Paired with Carmen is Boléro, a striking work driven by Maurice Ravel’s hypnotic and steadily building score. With its repeated rhythm and growing intensity, Boléro creates a mesmerizing journey of movement, energy, and power.

This split bill offers audiences an evening of contrast and excitement—two distinct works united by passion, music, and theatrical force.
