Glushko Academy to stage Swan Lake excerpts in Dec. production
|
Posted on Nov 22 2011
Since 2002, every year in December Glushko’s Ballet Academy has been constantly improving the quality of its professional ballet productions. Each performance includes both professional international stars and the talents of over 45 aspiring young stars from the island, all masterfully choreographed in performances that feature excerpts from world famous ballets. These annual productions provide the only opportunity island residents have to experience ballet for themselves.
On Dec. 9 and 10, 2011, Anna Glushko will arrange a spectacular holiday performance of Swan Lake, one of the world’s most popular and beautiful ballet classics, featuring the musical compositions of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky.
Performances are scheduled at 7pm on both Dec. 9 and 10 (Friday and Saturday), at the Amphitheater of the American Memorial Park. Primas or stars from both Korea and Russia will again perform.
Tickets-only $15 for adults and $10 for under 12 years old-can be purchased at all Shell gas stations on Saipan, Gourmet Restaurant, Shenanigans in Garapan, 360 Restaurant, Manic Inn in Susupe, and Kevin’s Department Store in Chalan Kanoa.
The production cost alone to stage this wonderful event is more than what the Ballet Academy earns in a full year from tuition but, thanks to generous sponsors and donors, what would only be a dream will again become a wonderful reality. Some of sponsors and donors include: Lao Lao Bay Golf Resort, Shell Marianas, Tan Holdings Foundation, Sasha Co. Ltd, First Hawaiian Bank, Bank of Guam, Bank of Hawaii, Bank of Saipan, Pacific Saipan Distribution, Burger & Comer CPAs, DFS Galleria Saipan, Coconut Computer Services, Saipan Aquaculture Inc., Triple J, Gourmet Restaurant, Marianas Business Plaza, Dental Care, Hyatt Saipan, Manic Inn, Delta Air Lines, Asiana Airlines, and attorneys Joshua Berger, O’Connor & Dotts, Bruce Mailman and Maya Kara, Douglas Cushnie, and Stephen Nutting.
