HI EVERYONE,
We are well into the summer classes and things are going very well at Flower City Ballet. We had a terrific year and we are continuing to be very busy. Our Nutcracker last year was a big success and we would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone of our students and their spouses and parents who contributed so much to its success. Of course, a special thank you to all the people who came to see our performances. We hope you enjoyed them.
As long as I am in the “Nutcracker” chapter of this news, I would like to announce that our 2010 rendition of the Nutcracker will be three performances this year (Dec. 17th (Evening), Dec. 18th (Evening) and Dec. 20th (Sunday Afternoon). We have a change of venue this year also, we will be at the School of the Arts for all three of our Performances. In case you don’t know where the school is, it is across the street from the Memorial Art Gallery in the city. Hope all of you will mark your calendar and join us, we are very excited to do our performances there.
We are once again having tryouts for the show. We would love to see all of you who are interested, put on the old ballet shoes and show up. Tryouts will be on the 7th and 8th of August. They will be at the studio on Cumberland Street in the Old Post Office. Our telephone number is (325-2114). We will be having children from 10:00 to 11:30 each day (age 6-13) For the more intermediate and professional students (1:00 to 3:00) on each day. If you want more information or reserve a place, please call (325-2114) and ask to speak to Mr. Wayne Blatt, the Artistic Director. You can also email me at (saharris@Rochester.RR.com). For further information.
We are very proud to announce, that our Director, Mr. Wayne Blatt received two Proclamations this year from the City of Rochester and The County of Rochester. He received the city Proclamation at a Gala on May 2nd that was performed in his honor by members of Flower City Ballet. May 2nd has now been proclaimed Flower City Ballet Day. Congratulations Mr. “B”!!
Our younger classes continue to grow and we are so happy about how the parents, children and community have accepted all our efforts in this area. Another area for us that has been growing by leaps and bounds is our adult division. They are doing such a fabulous job and performed solo work at the Gala which was beautiful. We invite all of you to join these classes as we feel they are a great addition to our ballet school, as well as to the community.
