In-School Performances

Peter and the Wolf on Tour

Peter and the Wolf, choreographed by Cassandra Crowley, is available for schools outside of Stark County and those who cannot manage the busing and time to attend a performance at our theatre. Canton Ballet will bring this brand new traveling production, made possible through a grant from Arts in Stark, to your school auditorium. The one-hour production includes a lecture-demonstration and the complete performance of Peter and the Wolf.

Performances may be scheduled between late September and October, and require a minimum attendance of 100 @ $6 per person.

Learn more about the composer and why he decided to create this unique story ballet. The study guide includes reproducible inter-active materials about the instruments, and the characters and ballet, as well as a biography of the composer, some history of the times when Peter and the Wolf was written, and some architectural information and history about the Canton Palace Theatre.
