Art and dance collide
Vincent
Kingsport Ballet Presents
June 28 & 29, 2025
Ballad Performing Arts Center
This brand-new contemporary ballet is an exploration of the relationship between Vincent Van Gogh's life and his art. Vincent - the genius and prolific painter - battles his darker, troubled self on the stage. By bringing his favorite painting themes to life through the art of dance, this production tells the story of Vincent's struggle with mental illness with empathy, heartache, and beauty.
Vincent features never-before-seen choreography, backdrops, and costumes inspired by Van Gogh's "Sunflowers", "Starry Night", and more. The ballet is choreographed by Leonid Flegmatov, Erika Ballard, and Irma Cardano and is brought to the stage in a collaborative effort with other exceptionally talented contributors.
Join us this June for a moving performance unlike any other.
