FREE Ballet Performance

Brandywine Ballet is pleased to announce its 2011 Delaware County Summer Festival Performance at Rose Tree Park, 7:30 p.m., Friday, July 29. Admission is free. Bring blankets or lawn chairs for seating.
Rose Tree Park is  at Route 252 & Rose Tree Road, just off Route  1.
 The performance represents the culmination of Brandywine Ballet’s Summer Intensive Program for serious dancers. Dancers will perform an exciting array of choreography by an impressive roster of special summer guest artists, including Meredith Rainey (Carbon Dance), Fang-Ju Gant (Koresh Dance), Martha Chamberlain (Pennsylvania Ballet), Jonathan Stiles (Pennsylvania Ballet), Tara Keating (BalletX) and Nancy Page (Resident Choreographer).
 Artistic Director Donna Muzio founded the Brandywine Ballet in 1979 to inspire and educate the community and aspiring dancers through the beauty and history of contemporary and classical ballet. Bringing together pre-professional, professional, and special guest dancers from diverse artistic backgrounds and experiences, Brandywine Ballet has established itself as a formidable platform for dance training and performance in the Greater Philadelphia region.
The company presents an annual, subscription-based, production season consisting of a fall series, holiday performances of The Nutcracker, and a spring series at its resident theater Emilie K. Asplundh Concert Hall in West Chester. Select members of Brandywine Ballet also make a number of guest performances throughout the year at venues such as Longwood Gardens, Philadelphia’s Painted Bride and Immaculata University.
In recent years, the company has premiered innovative works by guest choreographer’s Matthew Neenan (Ballet X), Ronen Koresh (Koresh Dance Company), Meredith Rainey (formerly Pennsylvania Ballet), and Resident Choreographer Nancy Page. By arrangement with The George Balanchine Trust, Brandywine Ballet has also performed several historically important works in accordance with the Balanchine Style® and Balanchine Technique® Service standards established and provided by the Trust. To date, the company has performed Balanchine’s Concerto Barocco, Tchaikovsky Pas De Deux, Serenade, and most recently Valse-Fantaisie.
