Dancer For A Day - Annually in August
Boys and girls entering first, second, or third grade in fall 2010 (please no children younger than first grade) are invited to enroll to be a dancer for a day in the KCB studios (1616 Broadway, KCMO).

Students take an age-appropriate dance class with live music, learn a ballet story and create choreography to match the music themes, learn about various types of dance shoes, see Kansas City Ballet dancers at work and discover what happens in KCB’s costume shop. 

For information on Dancer for a Day in 2011, contact Linda Martin at lmartin@kcballet.org or 816.931.2232 x1315.

Program Speakers
From the drama of love betrayed to the joy of love found, and featuring gorgeous music and exquisite costumes, scenery and lighting, Kansas City Ballet productions have it all.  Everyone enjoys this exciting art form, but it helps to know a little bit before you attend a performance.  A Kansas City Ballet representative will introduce your group to the extraordinary world of dance.  Available for groups of 15 or more.
