Your donation will help cover additional expenses for our company dancers and musicians, such as:
-
Professional dancers require a full-time salary and health care. They must rehearse and take classes daily to stay in shape to protect themselves from injury and expand their artistic expression.
-
A professional dancer can use 20-30 pairs of shoes per season. One pair of pointe shoes costs approximately $110.
-
A live orchestra is made up of close to 50 paid musicians, costing approximately $16,000 per performance.
-
Theatre rental costs exceed $32,000 for the space and stagehands, per performance.
Your support is essential and deeply appreciated.
