14-15-static-banner_camino_revisedKilroy is coming … are you? Join Atlanta Ballet for the world premiere of Camino Real, a full-evening piece inspired by Tennessee Williams’ 1953 play and told from the perspective of Kilroy, a patriotic character from World War II. The work deals with human mortality, the desire to connect and the will to live. It was created by choreographer in residence Helen Pickett and is her fourth piece for Atlanta Ballet. The dancers are joined by the Atlanta Ballet Orchestra, which performs a newly commissioned score. These tickets are for front orchestra or center mezzanine seats.
