Ballare Teatro Performances

See Our Dancers Put Their Talent on Display

Dance is a performing art! We have several opportunities for our Ballare Teatro Performing Arts Center dancers to strut their stuff.

• June Concert
• Isabella Saves the World
• The Excellent Adventure
• The Creative Dance Show

The 2026 concerts spring concerts are scheduled for June 5 and 6.

There will be a live streaming option so more family and friends may watch from home.

Dress rehearsals will take place Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, the week of the show. Dancers in Fundamental A-IB will only have dress rehearsal on one day. Dancers in Level IIA-V may have rehearsals on more than one day. We will schedule earlier dress rehearsal times for younger dancers. More information about which show in which your dancer will perform, as well as which day your dancer has dress rehearsal, can be found in the recital information packet that will be handed out during the March family visitation week.

Tickets for the June concerts are $18.00 for ages 11-adult. Tickets for children ages 2-10 and seniors are $15.00. Tickets go on sale in March. This year, all dancers will pay a $35 production fee. With that fee everyone will receive a digital download and access to the livestream. Tickets will be available for purchase at the door if we aren't sold out.

We can’t wait to see you at the show!

The evil Snow Sorcerer has placed a curse on the world — winter will not go away! Isabella defies her mother and ventures out to bring the seasons back. She encounters a swirling snowstorm and soldiers guarding the castle where the worker fairies make the snowflakes. Fighting her way through a forest that comes to life, she finds the Evergreen Elder who helps her along the way. Will Isabella succeed? You need to come to the show to find out!

Dancers in Levels Fundamental B through Level V participate in this original ballet that will be performed on Saturday, March 7, 2026.  We can't wait to see you there!

We are excited to be bringing  'The Saturday Series' to our level II-V dancers. This is a once/monthly master class that will expose our dancers to choreographers who produce work in the genres that the Excellent Adventure focuses on, and/or content that has a social justice theme. Levels IV and V will get to learn choreography that will be performed at the recital, and as well as different venues as they arise.  The next Saturday Series will take place during the 2026-2027 dance season.

This year's creative dance show was a fantastic success! Check back in the fall to find out about our 2026 performance.

This is intended to be a low-key introduction to performance. The lights will be on in the theater, and teachers are on stage with the dancers. This is one of our favorite performances, and we can’t wait to see you there!

Past performances include "We’re Going on a Bear Hunt" and "Today I Feel Silly."

This show is FREE!
