    Houston Ballet, as part of its 2011-2012 Season, presents Giselle. Running September 22 through October 2 in Wortham Center's Brown Theater.

    A striking pairing of contemporary and classical, speed and stillness, this two-part program is a spectacular showcase for the dancers of Houston Ballet. Stanton Welch’s Indigo abounds with sensual energy.

    Giselle is a journey into a beautiful world of love, ghosts and mystery. The story of a peasant girl and the man who deceives her, Giselle is one of the most widely performed works of the Romantic era. Newly staged for Houston Ballet, this Giselle harkens back to early Russian productions.
