Full-length Story “Moving Movies” by Ballet AZ

Written and choreographed by Resident Choreographer Nayon Iovino, Moving Movies will feature a new full-length story ballet about a director of a famous movie studio who gets abducted by an opportunistic villain. In typical old Hollywood fashion, this celebrated director is held hostage and forced to create an Oscar-worthy script for the villains to produce, until he is rescued by the story’s “hero.” This ballet will feature celebrated music scores such as “James Bond Suite – Orchestra Medley,” composed by John Barry, and “West Side Story Overture,” composed by Leonard Bernstein. Other famous scores include “Morning Promenade” from the Charlie Chaplin film The Kid, “Orchestral Suite” from the film La Dolce Vita composed by Nino Rota, and “Amarcord” from the film Amarcord both composed by Nino Rota and directed by Federico Fellini. Moving Movies will take audiences on a cinematic journey through some of the biggest films of all time, featuring powerful music and stunning visuals that will entertain the senses. Let Ballet Arizona delight and entertain with colorful costumes, live music, and thrilling choreography in an unforgettable experience that guests will not want to miss.
