Testimonials
"Many of these students have never participated in an event that displays the arts. Many of them went home to tell their families about what they saw and how incredible it would be for the whole family to see something like that."
-Teacher after a student matinee performance
“The combinations of the music, dance, on-stage chorus for Carmina Burana, orchestra, sets, and costumes -- are world class. I've never had a dance performance move me so much. I said [to my friend] 'it is a privilege to be able to describe something like this, and then I cried."
-Audio describer Bonnie Barlow after previewing Ballet MasterWorks
“Thank you thank you thank you for doing this!!!! We have 3 boys with special needs, and this is the best way for us to attend without making it a painful experience for them. This would not have been possible for us without this being a special performance as well as the reduced pricing! Their special needs means I can’t work and all their therapies cost more than we can make as a one income household, I know that’s common in special need homes, so I truly thank you guys for this!!!!”
