The Pacific Ballet Dance Theatre Story: Preserving Artistry, Empowering the Future
Pacific Ballet Dance Theatre (PBDT) has long been a cornerstone of artistic expression in Southern California. Founded by the legendary Andrei Tremaine and now led by his daughter, Artistic Director Natasha Middleton, PBDT has been captivating audiences with a stunning repertoire of classical and contemporary ballet for decades.
In recent years, we’ve pushed boundaries by blending traditional ballet with modern influences. Our most recent production, World Cinematic Jazz & Dance, featuring Benny Rietveld and Andy Vargas, was a groundbreaking success that earned standing ovations. Now, we have an exciting vision to bring this unforgettable performance back to the stage alongside a revival of one of our most beloved classics, the ballet Carmen.
Why We Need Your Help – Now More Than Ever
Pacific Ballet Dance Theatre is at a critical juncture, and we urgently need your support to sustain our company into the next year. As a nonprofit organization, we depend on the generosity of donors like you to cover the increasing costs of production, including theater rentals, dancer salaries, costumes, and technical needs. Your contribution today ensures that we can continue creating and sharing the transformative power of ballet with the community.
Here’s why your immediate support is crucial:
- Sustaining Our Legacy: We have ambitious plans to revive Carmen and bring back World Cinematic Jazz & Dance, but we cannot do it without the financial backing necessary to stage these complex productions. Your gift will directly fund the revival of these two incredible shows that have the power to captivate audiences all over again.
- Keeping the Art Alive: Without urgent support, we face difficult choices about scaling back our performances and outreach programs. Your donation ensures that we can keep offering world-class ballet and nurturing the next generation of dancers.
- Securing Our Future: We are committed to presenting a full season of performances next year, but we need your help to make that a reality. Your generosity will help us continue to provide innovative, culturally rich programming that serves both our local community and global audiences.
We are passionate about sharing the beauty of ballet with the world, but we can’t do it alone. Please consider making a donation today to ensure that Pacific Ballet Dance Theatre can continue to inspire and thrive for years to come. With your support, we’ll be able to bring back the magic of our most recent productions and continue to innovate in the world of dance.
Thank you for standing with us in this critical moment. Together, we can keep the art of ballet alive.
