The Snow Queen Ballet Costumes

It's no secret that the costumes designed for our annual production of the Snow Queen Ballet are second to none.  Simultaneously intricate and unique as they are classic, costume designers Christine Morrison and Nancy Scott achieve new levels of perfection as they blend the beauty, the theatrics and the drama of the ballet into their designs.  Each costume helps to breathe life and realism into the characters they represent, while maintaining an other-wordly, enchanting quality, thus bringing the magical world of The Snow Queen into vibrant texture and color.
