The Latin Ballet of Virginia presents MARCEL, A Silent Hero, produced by our founder, Ana Ines King for the Weinstein Jewish Community Center, Richmond, VA and choreographed by our artistic director, Marisol Cristina Betancourt and the company. MARCEL, A Silent Hero will be premiered at the theatre of the Weinstein JCC on May 2nd, 2024 at 7 pm. MARCEL, is a dance theatre production inspired by the life and art of Marcel Marceau, the master of silence and hero of the Holocaust. MARCEL tells the story of the internationally renowned mime, Marcel Marceau who delighted audiences for decades as “Bip,” a tragicomic figure who encountered the world without words. But during World War II, his skills as a mime came in handy for another reason: He saved hundreds of Jewish children during the Holocaust.
