Family Life Presents Premiere Christian Ballet Company Ballet Magnificat!, The Scarlet Cord


BATH, N.Y.—America’s premier Christian ballet company, Ballet Magnificat!, will perform its newest ballet, The Scarlet Cord, on Mon., March 11 and Tues., March 12. Presented by Family Life, performances will be held at Evangel Church of Buffalo, located at 8180 Greiner Road. Tickets are $18 in advance and $21 at the door. Doors open at 6 p.m. and performances begin at 7 p.m.
Inspired by the Biblical account of Rahab, The Scarlet Cord depicts a vivid drama of betrayal, love, and dedication as two missionaries hold fast to their faith in Jesus Christ. In The Scarlet Cord, missionaries minister in one of the cruelest regimes the world has known - the communist Soviet Union. The main character, Rahab, learns a hard lesson when she is abandoned by a Soviet commander - the man she desperately loves. In her grief, two missionaries share their hope in Jesus Christ. Afterward, Rahab’s heart is changed and a redemptive story unfolds.
From the Kennedy Center in Washington DC, to Singapore's historic Victoria Theatre, thousands have experienced the professional dance companies of Ballet Magnificat!  Headquartered in Jackson, Mississippi, the company was founded in 1986 by IBC Silver Medalist, Kathy Thibodeaux. Her husband, Keith, is the former child star known for his portrayal of "Little Ricky" in the TV series, "I Love Lucy".
Recognized for its excellence in ballet training, Ballet Magnificat! offers dance classes, workshops and schooling for youth and adult dancers. The company’s Summer Dance Intensive, Teachers Workshop, and School of the Arts attract hundreds of students from around the world to Jackson, MS, for a unique technical and spiritual experience.
