Final evening I attended the season announcement occasion for Texas Ballet Theater with my pal Rachel and I couldn’t wait to inform you about it! The cocktail occasion was held on the Perot Museum in Dallas, which I actually ought to go to extra usually, and featured gentle bites and signature cocktails. Y’all ought to have seen my face when the bartender requested if I wished a Magnificence and the Beast cocktail. I believed I dreamed it for a second. Me? The Disney Dinners woman? Absofreakinlutely!
The glowing Magnificence and the Beast cocktail was a mixture of gin, champagne, and a lemon easy syrup, glittering with Fancy Sprinkles prism powder. (Sure, I acquired that particular with the bartender!) It could have been a stunning addition to my Magnificence and the Beast ceremonial dinner.
I wore somewhat black gown from J Crew with blush booties and a white wrap for the event. I pulled a part of my hair again with an enormous black bow. Can we normalize grown girls carrying bows? Frankly I felt lovable and a ballet cocktail occasion felt like the right place to sport an enormous velvet bow.
The 2023-2024 season begins with Dracula, which might be certainly one of my favourite reveals I’ve ever seen by Texas Ballet Theater, September 15-17 in Dallas and October 6-8 in Fort Value. I’m so pumped they’re doing it once more! It’s an ideal strategy to kickoff spooky season.
Then in fact there’s The Nutcracker, which I see yearly, November 24-December 3 in Dallas and December 8-24 in Fort Value. It simply wouldn’t be Christmas with out The Nutcracker!
Subsequent up is Brilliants February 23-25 in Fort Value and March 1-3 in Dallas. The combined repertoire options 4 quick ballets in a single: Rubies, Grand Pas Classique, Le Corsaire Pas de Deux, and With out Borders.
Final however actually not least for this Disney fanatic is Magnificence and the Beast Might 3-5 in Dallas and Might 17-19 in Fort Value. I’ve by no means seen the ballet model of Magnificence and the Beast earlier than and couldn’t be extra excited, particularly since Texas Ballet Theater is ending this season with Alice in Wonderland. Is that this the beginning of an annual Disney present? Right here’s hoping!
Cheers to the humanities,
