Cartier Williams Dance Theatre will present a new adaption of Prokofiev's Peter and The Wolf. This reimagined story follows Peter as he tries to court Brenda Bird and fight off The Big Bad Wolf, Gangsta. Featuring a modern twist on other famous fairytale characters as well, including Mac Cool Cat and Doris Duck, the hip opera performance draws the audience into an updated version of the classic Russian children’s story. Williams’ choreography and his company of tap, ballet, hip-hop and modern dancers will bring the famous cast of characters into a 21st-century urban setting.
