This May, Diablo Ballet closes its 25th Anniversary Season with Celebrated Masters which features an encore presentation of the iconic Swan Lake Suite, staged by Company Regisseur, Joanna Berman; the romantic Tryst by Val Caniparoli, originally created for San Francisco Ballet and set to the music of Amadeus Mozart and the beautifully dynamic Walk before Talk by KT Nelson, Co-Artistic Director of ODC/Dance, created for Diablo Ballet in 1998. Immediately following each performance, ticket holders are invited to a dessert and coffee reception where you can meet and mingle with the dancers. Prior to the Saturday 8 pm performance, ticket holders are invited to join noted dance patron Diane Mauch for a pre-show talk at 7:15 pm for an inside look into the legendary ballet Swan Lake.
