Ballet Wichita returning to Camelot: It will present its King Arthur ballet "Merlin's Song" this weekend at WSU.
Byline: Chris Shull
Mar. 31--Ballet Wichita will visit King Arthur's Camelot this weekend -- but not the well-known fairy-tale kingdom with the dashing Knights of the Roundtable and their quest for the Holy Grail.
Ballet Wichita will explore a more mysterious Camelot when it presents "Merlin's Song" on Saturday and Sunday at Wichita State University.
This will be the second presentation of the work.
The 75-minute dance was created by Ballet Wichita's artistic director Jill Landrith and premiered in 2001.
"Merlin's Song" is set to Gustav Mahler's Symphony No. 1, with its story crafted from Arthurian legend by WSU English professor William Woods.
While Landrith and Woods don't shy away from love and romance -- this is a ballet, after all -- the story has a dark edge to it. Arthur, Lancelot, Guinevere and the knights and ladies are much closer to the forest than to stately castle halls. Merlin and Morgana are full-fledged sorcerers, closer to nature than to enlightened knowledge.
