Firebird & Carmen

Experience an electrifying program of myth and desire as Firebird and Carmen ignite the stage. Set to Stravinsky’s epic score, The Georgia Ballet premiere of Daet Rodriguez’s one-act ballet Firebird transports audiences to a magical world of legend and transformation, where a mystical creature’s power brings hope and renewal.

The program continues with the passionate drama of Carmen. Set to Bizet’s fiery, unforgettable score, this iconic story burns with intensity as a fiercely independent woman lives—and loves—by her own rules.

Enhancing the power of these timeless works, the Georgia Ballet Symphony will perform live, bringing Stravinsky’s sweeping orchestration and Bizet’s iconic melodies to life in an immersive theatrical experience.

Together, these powerful ballets deliver breathtaking movement, bold storytelling, and unforgettable live music exploring freedom, fate, and courage.

*Thursday’s performance will be a one-hour and 15 minute, sensory-friendly presentation of Firebird featuring a smaller audience, softened music and lighting, and an inclusive environment designed for guests of all needs.
