“Beautiful and bizarre, more gothic dance theater than stiff ballet…Never one to disappoint, Ballet Fantastique delights with something of the terrible…” —Eugene Weekly
“Inspired by Poe’s blockbuster tales…this grand Halloween spectacle embraces Poe’s themes of death, madness, isolation, the undead, and more…macabre” —Jamuna Chiarini, Oregon Arts Watch
