12th Annual “Gala of the Stars”

Experience an unforgettable night of dance at the 12th annual “Gala of the Stars” on Friday, August 16 at 7 p.m. at Renee and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall. This unique event boasts an incredible roster of world ballet stars from internationally-acclaimed ballet companies, whose talent will be complemented by select, inspired young protégés. Current and future stars will share the stage in one spectacular performance.

Festival Ballet Theatre, Orange County’s premiere resident ballet company is celebrating its 30th anniversary with an exciting gala performance where world-renowned ballet artists share their love and expertise of the craft with future, inspired young stars. The young protégés have been selected as standout performers by visiting artistic directors of the Southland Ballet Academy International Summer Intensive and the prestigious Youth America Grand Prix. The often sold-out performance is a rare opportunity for Orange County audiences to see dancers from different companies in one evening that celebrates the art and passion of ballet.

The “Gala” presents an unprecedented opportunity to see current and future stars connecting through the same language of dance.

Dawson Cole Fine Art is pleased to present a collection of ballet works by renowned sculptor Richard MacDonald. Throughout the evening, explore his ballet works in the concert hall lobby.
