Published September 17, 2009 07:23 pm - WEEKENDER cover story for Sept. 18, 2009: Beware. There’s a wolf in Ashtabula A double feature at arts center ‘Peter and Wolf,’ ‘Saturday in Park’ starting tonight Star Beacon ASHTABULA — Beware. There’s a wolf in Ashtabula
You’ll know him, because he’ll be accompanied by Peter. Presented by Ballet Theatre Ashtabula at the Ashtabula Arts Center, Prokofieff's “Peter and the Wolf” will be held today at 7:30 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday at 2 p.m. “Peter and the Wolf” is a classic children's tale about the young pioneer Peter, who stays at his grandfather's house. While there, he goes to a nearby meadow with his animal friends to play. His grandfather warns him to be careful and stay near the house to avoid wolves but Peter does not listen. “I think this play does more than teach children a life lesson, it also acts as an introduction to music and dance. Kids get to experience the complicated beauty of an orchestra while watching the disciplined movements of dancers,” says Shelagh Dubsky, dance coordinator “Sunday in the Park,” a comedic adaptation of the ballet “Les Sylphide” by Chopin, will follow directly after “Peter and the Wolf.” “Sunday in the Park” is a subtle comedy about a young man who sits down in the park to read his newspaper. Soon after he sits a young women finds him, falls in love, and tries to convince him to marry her. When she finally catches his attention, another beautiful women appears and takes an interest in him. Soon, a crowd of people is chasing the young man around the stage when all he wants to do is sit and read his Sunday paper. Tickets for the double feature production are on sale now. General admission tickets are $12, senior/student are $11 and children under age 12 are $10. Advance sale ticket purchases will receive a $2 per ticket discount.
