DIRECTOR’S NOTE Dear Friends, Madeline is back! Lawrence Ballet Theatre is delighted to take you on the beloved adventure of Madeline at the Carnival. The final story in LBT’s trio of Madeline productions finds the 12 little girls accepting an invitation from Pepito to attend a carnival performance. Whether you are in the audience or on a livestream, LBT is thrilled you are joining us as we kick off our 20212022 season. Please be sure to join us for The Nutcracker: A Kansas Ballet, December 10, 11 and 12, and our spring performance, April 23-24. To be safe, all cast, crew, and audience members will be in masks, but this heartfelt story cannot be hindered by three layers of paper! With gratitude, Cynthia Crews
