Oregon Ballet Theatre

On Sunday night, we attended a live performance of the Oregon Ballet Theatre Company, on an outdoor stage set up on the riverfront. The area was covered in an enormous tent, but the wind could still blow through. It rained on Sunday afternoon and was 55 degrees at the 7:30 showtime, but the crew dried things off and the dancers performed. It was glorious to see live dance again. Steve, Liesl, and I wrapped ourselves up in puffy blankets and enjoyed the three-act show. The first was an a theme of clouds, and was meditative. The second featured the OBT junior company, dancing to Vivaldi's Seasons. The third dance was on the theme of joy and regeneration and was our favorite. 

No photos from the show, of course, but here we are, and here's the setup.
