Raffaella Ballet

Experience a celebration of beauty, artistry, and the enduring power of the human spirit at the World Premiere of “Raffaella,” a new full-length fairytale ballet honoring the memory and legacy of Saint Louis Ballet dancer and South Bend native Raffaella Stroik.

History will take place at the Morris Performing Arts Center this summer as world-class artists and the South Bend Symphony Orchestra come together to perform the largest original professional ballet to debut in Indiana.

New York City Ballet Principal Dancer Isabella LaFreniere graces the stage as Raffaella, and International Principal Dancer Jonatan Lujan shines as the Prince.

Choreography by Claire Kretzschmar. Music by Michael Kurek.

Performances are Saturday, June 29, at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday, June 30, at 3:00 p.m. at the Morris Performing Arts Center in South Bend.
