ABOUT OSBA

Under the direction of numerous dedicated Board Members and longserving Executive Directors like Jean Pell (27 years) and Sharon Macfarlane (14 years), OSBA has expanded its programming but remains committed to its mission to enrich the lives of people in northern Utah by sponsoring world-class classical music and dance programming in the Greater Ogden Area. Since its inception, OSBA has presented over 800 performances.

In 1949, Beverly Lund and Ginny Mathei decided they wanted to add even more culture to Weber County, so, with the help of a few friends and their husbands’ checkbooks, they brought the Utah Symphony to Ogden for a single performance. The total cost was $400, and three hundred people attended the concert.

This 1949 concert was a big success, so the women decided to present even more concerts in Ogden. They organized a committee within the Welfare League (later the Junior League) to raise funds for the Symphony Concerts. Then, in 1957, this committee reformed and incorporated as the Ogden Guild. After a few more name changes and the addition of Ballet West performances in 1982, the organization became the Ogden Symphony Ballet Association.

801.399.9214

In addition, OSBA actively works to engage and educate younger patrons.

For example, our Youth Guild has provided generations of high school students with opportunities to serve. We also offer a variety of education classes, from Masterworks Music Detectives to Music and Dance Explorers. And we are partnering with several local community organizations to expand these programs to reach even more children and students.

This year, we will also present our second Youth Benefit Concert, featuring Young Concert Artist Xavier Foley and young aspiring musicians from our very own community. The proceeds from this concert will go to fund music education scholarships for local children. If you would like to know more about any of these programs, please do not hesitate to call our office!

About this performance of Scheherazade Scheherazade’s one-thousand-and-one tales are told to heal her King and to save his kingdom. Through these fantastic stories, the King experiences adventures both great and small and discovers his true capacity to love. Music, like theatre, has the power to illuminate and transform. As a theatre company whose work is primarily movementbased, music supports and enriches our storytelling and becomes another voice woven into the narrative. Our collaborations with symphony orchestras are inspired by a shared vision that by bringing together the magic of music and theatre, greater possibilities are born. The orchestra will evoke Scheherazade musically as we evoke it dramatically, using masks, puppets, magic and movement. It is our intention that our combined efforts will move the audience to discover this marvelous tale in a new and meaningful way.

–Leslie Reidel, Resident Director About Enchantment Theatre Company Enchantment Theatre Company thrills audiences with its innovative and visually dramatic family theatre productions. The company was founded in 1979 by Jennifer Blatchley Smith and Landis Smith, both actors and playwrights, and expanded to an artistic partnership with Resident Director Leslie Reidel in 1995. Enchantment Theatre Company’s distinctive artistry combines masked actors, puppets, magic, music and more.

Their original and inspiring productions have served more than a million children and families across America and around the world including performances at the Brooklyn Academy of Music and Lincoln Center in New York City; the John F. Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C.; the Academy of Music and the Kimmel Center with the Philadelphia Orchestra in their home town of Philadelphia; and in Asia, performing in Taiwan, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore. The company has appeared with major orchestras nationwide, including those of Atlanta, Baltimore, Cleveland, Houston, Minnesota and Seattle, and with the Boston Pops on the PBS “Christmas at the Pops” television special. Other Enchantment symphonic concert productions include The Firebird, Mother Goose, Cinderella, and The Merry Pranks of Till Eulenspiegel.

“Enchantment Theatre Company adds a beautiful visual narrative to Scheherazade, Rimsky-Korsakov’s stirring orchestral music. The audience was mesmerized by both.”

–Joan Katz Napoli, The Cleveland Orchestra
