Tonight is the kickoff of SF Ballet’s 2010 season with the Opening Night Gala: Silver Celebration. The evening’s festivities celebrate Helgi Tomasson’s 25th years as Artistic Director and include an elegant cocktail reception and dinner in City Hall followed by the gala performance. Casting has been announced for tonight’s performance, and includes excerpts from a number of Tomasson’s acclaimed works. After the performance, a post-performance party in City Hall will feature three exclusive dance clubs, cocktails and hors d’oeuvres. There’s still time to order tickets to both the performance and the post-performance party! Can’t wait until tonight’s performance? Check out the below highlight video from last year’s Gala.
Just a few short days after the Gala celebration, Swan Lake will open on Saturday, January 23. In case you haven’t seen it, the homepage of the website now features a video trailer of the production! Click here to see a behind-the-scenes video of the making of the production.
