    Ballet Austin: Carmina Burana

    Carl Orff's soul-stirring composition built from ancient tales of drunken debauchery among a brotherhood of monks, presented as a full-length ballet? Indeed, squire – with choreography by Stephen Mills, accompaniment by the Austin Symphony Orchestra, and vocals (oh! those familiar yet still spine-tingling vocals!) by none other than the Conspirare Symphonic Choir. Recommended!
    Sept. 20-22. Fri., 8pm; Sat., 2 & 8pm; Sun., 3pm. $39-59.

    Blue Lapis Light: In Light

    This latest Downtown spectacle of beauty and power from the acclaimed company features aerialists performing off the side of IBC Bank, dancers on Chinese poles, and an ensemble of ground-based performers. This event is not the sort of infrastructural phantasmagoria an arts-lover wants to miss, we reckon – so, yes, you'd best reserve tickets while you can.
    Through Sept. 29. Thu.-Sun., 8pm. $25-65.
