Firebird: The Russian fairy tale of Prince Ivan, the evil ogre Kostchei, a mysterious Firebird and the love of the beautiful princess Elena comes to life in the Maine State Ballet's production of Firebird. MSB Artistic Director Linda MacArthur Miele choreographs this fascinating ballet, with costumes and sets by Gail Csoboth. Set to Igor Stranvinsky's dramatic score with the Maine State Ballet dancers, Firebird will surely bring enjoyment to all.

Paquita: The story of Paquita is about a girl who is rescued from a massacre as a child by gypsies, who, years later, while travelling and dancing with the gypsy band, returns to her home in the Spanish valley town of Sargossa, and is subsequently reunited with her family. The divertissements performed are from Act II, Scene II, at Paquita's wedding celebration.
