FALL WORKS explores the exciting evolution of Charlotte Ballet. Johan Inger’s Walking Mad is a look to what the future holds. George Balanchine’s Apollo, staged by legendary Balanchine dancer and Kennedy Center Honoree Patricia McBride, is a tribute to the past. Elsa Canasta, choreographed by Javier de Frutos and originally set on artistic director Hope Muir, represents our present. Find out why our dancers are excited for FALL WORKS and why you should be too!
Sarah Hayes Harkins | 10th Season
Fall works will be very exciting, particularly Walking Mad and Apollo. I hope Charlotte is ready for us to blow them away with the diversity of our repertoire.
James Kopecky | 3rd Season
I’m excited to perform in Fall Works. Walking Mad has been on my bucket list for awhile. Growing up seeing Hubbard Street perform it has shaped what kind of a dancer I wanted to be.
Peter Mazurowski | 2nd Season
I’m most excited about Fall Works because it’s the perfect mix of styles and dynamics. It will definitely be a diverse show, and will be an amazing start to our first season with Hope.
Josh Hall | 5th Season
I think Johan Inger’s Walking Mad will be a highlight of the season.

Drew Grant | 2nd Season
I’ve always loved Balanchine’s Apollo and Johan Inger’s Walking Madis an exciting exploration of a familiar piece of music. I think audiences will really enjoy Walking Mad.
