2020 MIAMI CITY BALLET GALA
MCB’s 2020 Gala will be a dining and dancing experience inspired by the colorful and fiery production of Don Quixote. The ballet, originally choreographed in 1869 by Marius Petipa, tells the timeless tale of the valiant adventures of Don Quixote and Sancho Panza and their quest for virtue. Funds raised will support Company and School initiatives for premiere training, community engagement and to increase recognition of MCB as a national leader in dance.
