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 2024 concerts will take place on Friday, June 7, and Saturday, June 8, at Minnehaha Academy North Campus. There will be four shows:  Friday, June 7 at 6:30 PM; Saturday, June 8 at 12:00 PM, 3:00 PM, and the Showcase at 6:30 PM.

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

Dress rehearsals will take place Tuesday, June 4; Wednesday, June 5; Thursday, June 6. 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, which will be distributed during family visitation week in March. It will also be posted here after that time!

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. You may purchase to the show, the livestream, and purchase a digital download by filling out an online form, which will be linked here in March.  There will be a live streaming option available for those who aren’t able to join us in person. Tickets will be available for purchase at the door.

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 is performed in early March of even years.

Dancers who participate in this show will have a rehearsal fee added to their monthly tuition. This fee pays for the teachers’ time at rehearsals.

*Dancers in level III, IV and V and all narrators are in both shows.

Congrautlations to all the dancers on a FANTASTIC Isabella Saves the World 2024!! We will see you again in 2026!

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 2024-2025 dance season.

We are looking forward to having the creative dance show "My Many Colored Days" on June 7, 2024, at Minnehaha Academy North Campus at 5:00 PM! Dancers need to arrive by 4:45. As soon as the great majority of dancers have arrived, we will start the show (keeping the focus of 60+ 3- and 4-year-olds can be a challenge!) so please have family members arrive prior to 5:00 PM.

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 "In the Tall, Tall Grass."

This show is FREE!
