The PA Ballet's 51st Season

By R.J. McKay

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – Angel Corella is the new artistic director of the Pennsylvania Ballet. Although he was recently hired, he has been able to influence the Ballet's 51st season.

"It's been a very exciting new beginning for me and for the company. It's like a rebirth. The 2014-15 Season is a very special one, but specifically, the first October program called 'Press Play.' It's very important for me because I was able to put my input and change some of the choreographies."

If you have never been to the ballet, Corella explains what you can expect from a performance.

"People should go to the theater, just expect to dream, and make them feel like they are part of what they are doing on stage," Corella says.
