Magically merging the elements of orchestral arrangement, incredible costuming and stagecraft, and an ensemble of unforgettable characters, Charlottesville Ballet presents Snow White. This Family Series ballet, based on the beloved Grimms’ fairy tale, brings youth and adult dancers together to tell the classic story of jealousy, love, and friendship. Witness a beautiful princess strike up unlikely alliances with woodland creatures and seven diminutive miners, while an evil queen uses a magical mirror to follow her every move, waiting for the moment to strike. Also, a prince shows up at some point.
Saturday 5/4. $20–75, 11am and 3:30pm. The Paramount Theater, 215 E. Main St., Downtown Mall. theparamount.net
