Leonid & Friends have blown the minds of legions of fans with their uncanny ability to capture the spirit, musicality, and fire of American supergroup Chicago. Leonid Vorobyev's goal was a studio project in dedication to Chicago under the motto “musicians for musicians”. Their first video went viral, but they really gained traction when Chicago itself published the video on its official website. They have since expanded their repertoire to include Earth Wind & Fire, Blood Sweat & Tears, Ides of March, Stevie Wonder, Steely Dan, Deep Purple, and new original material. This incredible 11-piece band now has over 1,000,000 followers across social media, an astonishing 250 million+ video views, and over 300 successful US shows under their belt. The future is only looking up for Leonid & Friends.

The timeless classic, Swan Lake, returns to the Weill Center. Swan Lake is a renowned ballet that has captivated audiences for generations. It tells the story of Odette, a princess turned into a swan by an evil sorcerer's curse, and Prince Siegfried, who falls in love with her. The ballet features graceful choreography, beautiful music from Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, and stunning costumes and sets. Swan Lake is an essential ballet in contemporary classical theatre, and its psychological depth remains relevant today. The ballet's classical elements are evident in its meticulously crafted structure, adherence to traditional dance styles, and the distinction between classical and character dance. Its psychological impact lies in its enigmatic exploration of duplicity and the profound themes of fate and destiny. This event is suitable for people of all ages, making it a perfect outing for families, ballet enthusiasts, or anyone who appreciates the beauty of classical arts. Attending the performance promises to be a delightful evening, immersing the audience in the enchanting world of ballet.

Set in Bohemia during the 19th century, Count Dracula contemplates a plan for world domination, when he decides to open a traveling circus with his gypsy bodyguards. The Vampire Circus is a perfect cover-up to travel unnoticed and begin his world reign of terror and turn all humans into an army of vampires for global dominance.
