Details of each piece -

Peter and the Wolf
Music by Sergei Prokofiev - Choreography by Julia Wilkinson Manley, School Director

Peter and the Wolf is a popular children's story in which Peter disobeys his grandfather and goes into the dark forest. After the wolf eats Peter's friend, The Duck, Peter chases him down and captures him. He then takes the wolf to the zoo and Peter and his friends dance in celebration.

Third Act of Napoli
Music by E. Helsted, G. Rossini, Niels W. Gade, and H.S. Paulli - Choreography by August Bournonville

We arrive in time to see a festival in a small Italian village that is celebrating the wedding of Teresina (a young girl from the town) and Gennaro (Teresina's true love). Before this festival Gennaro saves Teresina who falls from a boat and is put under a spell and turned into Naiad (a fairy of the sea) by a powerful sea sprite. Teresina is freed from the spell by Gennaro when he shows her the Madonna medallion he carries. Once she is rescued, they are free to marry and celebrate with their village.

Firebird
Music by Stravinsky - Choreography by Camcie Foster

Prince Ivan is hunting and sees the Firebird. In exchange for the Firebird's life, she gives him a magical feather that will protect him. Moments later, he meets a beautiful princess whom he promptly falls in love with. But the princess is a captive of the evil magician Kastchei. The evil magician turns the princesses under his control into monsters. Prince Ivan summons the Firebird who kills Kastchei and the Prince and the Princess live happily ever after as the Firebird flies away.
