San Antonio’s premier ballet academy and performance group is recognizing a big milestone this October.

The details

Ballet San Antonio celebrated its 40th anniversary in the Alamo City with a performance of ‘Giselle’ on Oct. 17-19 at the Tobin Center for Performing Arts.

“We are so excited to bring back ‘Giselle,’ supported by an incredible cast and the brilliant choreography of Edwaard Liang,” Evin Nicole Eubanks, the chief executive officer for Ballet San Antonio, said.

The context


Ballet San Antonio features a group of top professional ballet dancers, putting on three productions each year as a resident company of the Tobin Center for the Performing Arts.

As for classes, there are two separate programs—one for children up to age 18 and another for adults, according to the website.

In addition to a competitive team and learning programs, the ballet also participates in a variety of community outreach programs.

Send Kids to the Ballet provides thousands of free tickets to partnered students and schools across the greater San Antonio area, their website says.
