Winter 2023 Performing Opportunity November 1, 2023

HaoExpression is happy to offer performance opportunities for our adult ballet community. During these months leading up to our winter show, we are proud to support the ballet training of our adult and teen dance students all levels and all ages. We love to witness the growth and hard work of our dancers in the studio each week. We like to create opportunities for all dancers to shine and for all our instructors to showcase their students’s hard work.

Winter 2023 Performance Opportunity

Wednesday November 1st, 2023: Dress Rehearsal, 6 PM

Cubberley Theatre, Palo Alto, California

To participate in November’s showcase, please note the following condition and performance requirements

• Be a HaoExpression member (with an on going A-Pass pack)
  
• Consistently attend weekly Ballet technique classes, as well as variation/repertoire/choreography classes at HaoExpression
  
• The piece performed must be set or choreographed by HaoExpression faculty and at HaoExpression studio, within the themes set for the show by the Directors.
• Dancers may perform as many group pieces as they wish. While dancers may learn several Variations in classes to explore the classical repertoire, please keep in mind that the Directors reserve the right to make the final call in casting in order to have a cohesive show program, avoid duplicate performance numbers, and to give all dancers equal opportunity to perform.
• ​Dancers are responsible for acquiring their own costumes. We strongly advise dancers to seek costume guidance with their director/instructor before purchases. Group dance costumes are selected by the choreographer/instructor.
