Boston Ballet's Kaleidoscope is just that, a colorful series of changing illusions. The four-part program features works by 20th century masters and each piece is a distinct work of art!
I was invited by Boston Ballet to go behind the scenes of the dress rehearsal and enjoyed capturing the warm up, the prepping of pointe shoes, the costumes, the before and after of makeup, and all the joking around (more on my snapchat: hoggerandco).
Opening night is tonight March 17, and the show runs until March 26. Tickets can be purchased on the Boston Ballet website.
