Published by Hans Christian Andersen in 1845, The Red Shoes became a British drama feature film starring renowned dancers from the ballet world in 1948. SiSu® Dance Company’s adaptation of The Red Shoes is based on Anderson’s tale.
The moral message is the tragic flaw of sin in the form of envy, jealousy, temptation, selfishness, and greed. The sinful nature of vanity and disobedience leads to the virtues of modesty and obedience. Megan Nicko choreographed and adapted the short story, giving it additional re-staging, new characters, story interest, and meaning.
SiSu® Dance Company is committed to continually bringing new and vibrant performances to the Albuquerque community that will encourage each one of us, dancers and ticket holders alike, to contemplate the way we live and what we live for. The story behind The Red Shoes holds a special place in our director’s heart, who not only performed in an earlier version of this ballet but also felt compelled to take it even further, with special staging and meaning throughout the performance.
