Ready, Set, GATSBY!

In less than three weeks time, the dancers of the Sacramento Ballet will be at the Community Center Theater preparing for a weekend of shows...It's very hard to believe, especially since this week is the first time we will be fully focused on Gatsby! Since the new year, we have learned a piece by Jared Nelson for our Modern Masters show (in May), and last week was devoted to learning George Balanchine's Who Cares, which will be performed alongside The Great Gatsby. I am very eager to see the ballet be pieced together this week, because aside from the fun duet I dance with Ava Chatterson (we play twins!) I have seen very little else of what Ron has choreographed for my fellow dancers! Be sure to check back later this week for my "behind the scenes" video of Gatsby rehearsals!!

Also, if you want to hear more about the making of Gatsby and get a first look at this world premiere, mark your calendars now for the Inside the Director's Studio on January 25 at 6pm!
