She was in the corps de ballet at Radio City Music Hall and on Broadway she appeared in Show Boat, A Tree Grows in Brooklyn and Wonderful Town. Amargosa (2000), Todd Robinson's documentary about Marta Becket, won a 2003 Emmy Award for cinematographer Curt Apduhan, in addition to the film's numerous festival awards and nominations.īecket began ballet lessons at age 14, which eventually led to performances as a ballerina. She performed for more than four decades at her own theater, the Amargosa Opera House in Death Valley Junction, California. Marta Becket (Aug– January 30, 2017) was an American actress, dancer, choreographer and painter. She will forever be pirouetting through her Opera House and the colonnades of Death Valley Junction. Thank you to everyone who love Marta and for all the outreach of condolences from her many fans from around the world. More thoughts and announcements in the coming days. Please think of Marta, her life and her legacy of preserving art of the past. Her legacy and her Opera House will live on, just as she wished. Her love of classical music, classical ballet and art of the past defined her and her life. From her beginnings in New York to her travels in finding her Opera House in the desert, and as an independent woman she followed her dream and kept true to herself. She was the most creative genius and treasure to this country and planet.
It is with a heavy heart and deep sorrow that we have to say our beloved Marta Becket has passed, January 30, 2017.
