As the famous Atlanta Ballet’s “Nutcracker” is coming to a close on December 28th, new and exciting shows are coming to the Fox, just in time for winter when no one can go outside!
Here are some wonderful favorites you should know about:
1. Sleeping Beauty
For one night only you can see the Russian Ballet’s “Sleeping Beauty." Russia has some of the most prestigious dancers in the world, so it’s a definite must-see. There’s only one performance at 3 p.m. on January 7th, and tickets range from $45 to $75.
2. The Lion King
You may have seen the signs posted everywhere near the theatre, but just in case you haven’t heard, Broadway’s “The Lion King” is coming to town! Everyone has always raved about this show in New York City, so it’s bound to be entertainment for the entire family. There are multiple performances from starting January 10 through January 28 with reasonably-priced tickets ranging from $39 to $169.
3. Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre
This is one show that may not already have the attention of many non-dancers, but this is definitely one you cannot miss. Dancer or not, the Alvin Ailey Dance Theatre puts on an exhilarating performance of passionate dancing. With the low price, there isn’t a reason not to go! They are here from February 14 through February 18 with tickets starting at $15.
4. Adam Trent
To follow the diversifying theme of all these shows, Adam Trent is the “break out star of the world’s best selling magic show, The Illusionists." It’s a 90-minute show and is perfect for every age. With one show only at 7:30 p.m. on February 3 and tickets ranging from $28.50 to $48.50 you can’t miss it!
5. Hamilton
Not many words are needed for this one; I personally love Hamilton and have been waiting and waiting until the day they announce they’re coming to Atlanta. The tickets are definitely more expensive, starting at $595, but it’s guaranteed to not only be an incredible show but an experience for each audience member. They are coming May 22 and staying until June 10.
