Oklahoma City Ballet

My experience growing up in relation to ballet solely consisted of The Nutcracker. Not that that's a big thing, I just knew nothing beyond that. Now that I'm an adult and have had a chance to see multiple ballets, I can appreciate the art form in a more complex way. OKC Ballet is truly world-class as we have dancers from all over the country and beyond, along with world premieres of ballets. We are lucky to have such a talented group in our city. From the sets and costumes to the beautiful choreography, they are putting on truly masterful productions. If you have a chance to see one of their shows, you won't be disappointed! You can also get a discount on tickets with your Allied Arts OK City Card!

The Sleeping Beauty was my first ballet and I have to say... I really enjoyed it. There has always been jokes about how ballets can be a huge snooze fest, but I was fully entertained. The costumes were just beautiful. I couldn't get over the colors, my eyes were just drawn to the stage. The music was just the icing on the cake. I couldn't get enough. I shocked how my emotions can be portrayed with no words. I took my husband and he was surprised how much he enjoyed it as well. Next time will take my daughter too. I didn't realize that this was a performance for the whole family. The ballet is truly for all ages. We will definitely be at the next OKC Ballet production.

As an early Christmas gift my boyfriend took me here to see the last performance of The Nutcracker and it was absolutely amazing. The performance was to die for. I cannot express how beautiful it was. I will just say this, they really outdid theirselves. The stage set was perfection. The performers all on point. Costumes were lovely. The show was perfect in every way and I plan on going to the next production in February. Thank you for my first OKC Ballet experience and a lifetime of beautiful memories. 5 stars all the way!

I can't say enough great things about the OKC Ballet! Their performers are really top notch as well as all of the performances they put on. I recently saw the "Nutcracker" & was blown away by how intimately the dancers could tell the story without saying a word. They all seem to truly love what they do! Each song was greeted by whimsical music & incredible body movement.Aside from the skill level of the performers (which is phenomenal) they also have beautiful costumes to accentuate their movement. If you ever have a chance to go see a performance at the Civic center, I highly recommend you make a date night ASAP & go check these lovely folks out! You will definitely not be disappointed! (P.S. You might also be motivated to hit the gym afterwards as these folks are in AMAZING shape! :) )

I really enjoy the OKC Ballet. I am not the biggest fan of the crowded seating in this particular location. There are some who I am lucky enough to sit next to that I really don't want to get to know better, but the crowded seating doesn't present an alternate choice.The ticket price is very realistic. Concessions are appropriate and I enjoy utilizing them.

Food: N/AService: 4/5Cleanliness: 4/5Decor & Style: 5/5I'm not the biggest ballet fan however I love the concept and the music which makes it relaxing. It's nice to see OKC have it! Every time I come here I feel very "classic" if you will.

I must shamefully admit I have never been to a ballet performance. It was such a treat to attend the Oklahoma City Ballet performance of The Nutcracker. Not only was it beautiful but wonderfully danced with an amazing cast.Kudos to the set designers as they helped bring this story to life. Everyone who attended instantly transported to these fictitious destinations. They took full advantage of the space and even the air as the two main characters sailed from the sky.The costume designers need a raise and award for their wonderful costumes. They were exceptionally vibrant and helped bring the characters to life.My father and I both enjoyed the production!

I'm sure that if I rated The Oklahoma Ballet every time that I attend a show; I would say that it was the best I've seen. The Oklahoma Ballet continuously impresses me. The costumes, lighting, and choreography are wonderful. I attended a Monday performance of The Nutcracker. I absolutely loved the snow scene. The ballerinas were wonderfully poised and the costumes were beautiful. Likewise, the Philharmonic orchestra played wonderfully and the civic center transformed into a wonderful story which transpired as we looked on. If, you have never attended a performance by the Oklahoma Ballet, you are missing out. Don't worry about being over dressed or under dressed, there were all types of people there. The audience was a vast mix of people of all ages. If you ware not a people person, no problem; you can get drinks and sugary snacks there because there are multiple concession stands ;P

I have danced all my life, but had never been to a ballet show in Oklahoma City because none of the shows really sparked my interest. When I saw Cinderella coming, I was ecstatic! Unfortunately, the dates fell on a pretty busy weekend for me so I held off on buying tickets, before Julie, Yelp's OKC community manager, kindly offered tickets the week before the show. My sister and I went and we loved it! The dancing was beautiful of course, along with the costumes and everything else about it. I also really love how the Civic Center does themed drinks for different shows. We had the "glass slipper," and the pretty blue drink just felt so perfect for the Cinderella show (forgive me, I like the cheesy drinks).I love going to things like this in Oklahoma City because it just shows our art scene growing. I'll definitely be keeping an eye on the ballet's schedule from now on for other shows I might be interested in. We had a great time!

I saw the nutcracker put on by the OKC baller and I must say "They did fabulous"Great well trained graceful dancersAbsolutely great use of the stage and props. I truly loved the little details! Especially the snowflakes. Normally I don't get too into the ballet but this show was perfect. I couldn't find anything negative and it kept me entertained through the entire show. Flawless performance. I have also seen Carmen put on by okc ballet loved it but they outdid themselves with the nutcracker. Can't wait to see more shows!
