BalletWorks is a charity event of high cultural calibre. With its diverse repertoire and international cast, the project seeks to bring the most exciting European developments to local theaters. We want to show that Ballet-Works.

Over the past two seasons we have raised over £9000 for the Earl Mountbatten Hospice on the Isle of Wight. We want to continue helping various worthy causes. It is important for us to venture to other venues across England. This way we can bring BalletWorks to new audiences, bringing in new repertoire each year.

This year's BalletWorks features dancers from Stuttgart Ballet, Hamburg Ballet, Staatsballet Berlin and Ballet Augsburg. It also showcases commissions from great young choreographers, Louis Stiens and Richard Chappell.

So go book your tickets now. Or visit our facebook page for more information.

Just to confirm that this was really an enjoyable programme last year (posts here http://www.balletcoforum.com/index.php?/topic/10300-the-gala-newport-isle-of-wight/) with a good mix of styles from classical to contemporary, performed by talented young dancers, all for a good cause.

Just bumping this up to remind people.

 

The London dates may be a nice alternative to the Bolshoi!

Already booked. I've just got to work out how to get there now. It's a bit out of the way (for me).

Wish I'd got organised sooner.  Sounds like it should be a good evening in aid of a good cause.
