Orlando Ballet School - Rosen JCC Concert - Nov 23
ORLANDO BALLET SCHOOL
Dear Parents, Families, and Guests,
Thank you so much for joining us for our annual Fall Repertory Concert! On our program we are sharing classical repertoire that acts as an ideal teaching tool into the history and magnificence of ballet.
The Trainees have prepared repertory works from the treasures of the 19th century canon.
For our closing ballet, Gonzalo Espinoza has created an original version of Carnival of the Animals, showcasing the talents and depth of our beautiful school.
The students, faculty, and choreographers are excited to share with you the work we’ve accomplished over the first few months of the school year!
Thank you for being here, for your kind support, and thank you for your family’s participation in the Orlando Ballet School!
Kind regards,
CHRIS ALLOWAYS-RAMSEY Director of Education Orlando Ballet School
