American Ballet Theatre
Whipped Cream
In this full-length story ballet—which will include a bevy of local dancers—a young boy overindulges at a Viennese pastry shop and falls into a delirious dream, filled with sugary heroes who come to his rescue. This dollop of delightful whimsy is a treat for the entire family and features alluringly sweet costumes and sets from the mind of pop surrealist visionary Mark Ryden. Choreographed by Alexei Ratmansky and featuring a score by Richard Strauss performed by Orchestra Iowa, Whipped Cream will satisfy your cravings for fun and fabulous dance.
