Every day I look forward to working with the staff at Ballet Quad Cites on exciting new cutting edge projects. I enjoy the bold new growth taking place within our ballet company as we continue to impact our community and surrounding region. Let me share some of the some of the winning, positive things that have happen at the ballet this summer.

What happened to summer?

Wasn't it just yesterday that Beer, Brats and Ballet just blew up with a fun evening, exceeding all expectations of success? Summer flew by as fast as the student dancers in summer classes culminating with Ballet Under the Stars, great audiences every evening even with the rain. Please take a look below to share in our thrill at the grants we have received already this year.

Take a moment to look at the NEW season and order your season tickets NOW. The 2015/16 season is a feast for your senses full of talent and innovation. Guest artist Domingo Rubio will return in October with a cameo role in "Murder Mystery at the Ballet". You can't forget the portrayal of Dracula last season and we agree with Ana Kissegooff who wrote in the New York Times and hailed his performance in Nijinsky's Afternoon of a Faun as "mesmerizing...marvelously intense" His dancing is distinguished by his emotional power and partnering skills, which have earned outstanding awards and fine critiques as a performer and choreographer. For further information about Domingo Rubio, check out his website at www.domingorubio.com.
