Spring Series

 

"Spring Series" is as delightful as it is diverse. The spirit of Sammy Davis Jr. lives on in Simply Sammy, Darrell Grand Moultrie’s toe-tapping, finger-snapping crowd-pleaser. This celebration of the legendary crooner includes an irresistible soundtrack, featuring nine of his classics such as “For Once in My Life” and “The Lady Is a Tramp.” Internationally acclaimed hoofer Marshall L. Davis Jr. recreates the aura of one of the original members of the Rat Pack in this one-of-a-kind performance. Be swept away in the hauntingly beautiful "Mozart Requiem", the second piece featured in "Spring Series." Mozart’s apocalyptic masterpiece is paired with Amy Seiwert’s stunning choreography in this poignant exploration of life and death. "Genesis" 2009 winner and Choreographer in Residence Timothy O’Donnell delivers the third piece, presenting his newest world premiere, "Children of The Wall," set to a pulsating mix of music from  Vitamin String Quartet, Wax Tailor and The Avalanche. With a mix of classical and contemporary styles, elegant costumes and choreography, these works tell stories that move you in ways only Milwaukee Ballet can.
