SAME PARK,
DIFFERENT FAIRY TALES! HGCBT'S FREE SPRING PERFORMANCE

Hope Garden Children’s Ballet Theatre (HGCBT) presented its annual spring production, Fairy Tales in the Park, to a large and enthusiastic audience at the Whalen Commons bandshell on May 17 and 18. Admission was free, allowing both ballet enthusiasts and casual passers-by to enjoy a quality production in a relaxed and friendly environment.

Act one featured original dances inspired by classic fairy tales, including Frozen, The Little Mermaid, Sleeping Beauty, and Beauty and the Beast. Audiences of all ages were swept into worlds of underwater kingdoms, enchanted forests, and palace banquets.

Act two introduced the audience to a stunning performance of Paquita, a classical ballet that featured advanced students, whose artistry and technique shone brightly in the afternoon sun.

HGCBT continues to transform young artists and bring arts and culture to Poolesville through performances like Fairy Tales in the Park. The curtain falls on another successful season, setting the stage for the winter production of A Winter’s Eve on December 6.

WHO WE ARE

Hope Garden Children's Ballet Theatre is a registered 501(c)3 non-profit organization located in Poolesville Maryland. Founded in 2008, Hope Garden Children’s Ballet Theatre is rooted in the idea that dance and the performing arts can give a voice and place of community to all. HGCBT offers unique access in an arts-deprived region to participate in the creation and performance of excellent dance, resulting in the production of professional-level performances. HGCBT provides these opportunities for community members of all ages and abilities, as well as all socio-economic, ethnic, and racial backgrounds. We hope to enrich the Northwestern Montgomery county region through this transformational art.
