is a timeless ballet that has inspired audiences for nearly two centuries with its story of lost innocence and unrequited love. It’s the tale of a youthful servant girl who falls for a nobleman disguised as a peasant.

, she grand-jetés through the mystical and perilous world of the dead to reach her paramour. The
Cuban Classical Ballet of Miami
chose a wonderfully dramatic fairy tale to kick off its 2007 season. The stirring romance is directed by Pedro Pablo Peña and Magaly Suárez, and features guest Cuban prima ballerinas Lorena Feijoo and Alihaydée Carreño, and principal dancer Rolando Sarabia.
