lampwick Posted June 22, 2008 Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 I heard today that the Oakland Ballet is regrouping, and a quick web search confirmed this. So nice to hear http://www.oaklandballet.org/ Quote Link to comment
dancer5 Posted June 22, 2008 Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 Well, kind of. Ronn Guidi had two performances last year, a fall program and a Nutcracker. He's been doing a "secret" Nutcracker for the last few years, and I am not entirely sure if this one was the same or different. Some professional dancers were hired for each show. I believe that if one was hired for one of the programs, there was about a 3 week contract with rehearsal pay. It would be nice to have professional ballet in Oakland again, and perhaps this is a start, but it's not quite the same as re-forming the company for a full season. Quote Link to comment
balletgirl22sk Posted June 22, 2008 Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 My oldest dd auditioned there in May and was offered pay per performance which she couldn't do since she has been paid weekly the last 2 years. She was not impressed with the studio, area, or class. Quote Link to comment
