Danceworks Performance MKE (DPMKE) and Milwaukee Opera Theatre (MOT) take the stage to revisit the tale of Rusalka: a water nymph determined to find love by way of magic, featuring singing sprites, dancing goblins, and Jason Powell as The Moon. Rooted in Slavic folklore, and packed with ravishing music, Rusalka remains Antonín Dvořák’s best known opera. This tale’s classic arias will accompany a modern day restructuring of the story by Powell, with singing in Czech, speaking in English, and dancing in...dance! MOT and DPMKE's 8th collaboration introduces an all new cast of dancers and choreography, while featuring the beloved actors from the 2023 Rusalka premiere.
