Classical Ballet Performance

The Kiawah Ilsand Arts Council is pleased to present the Charleston Ballet Theatre on Saturday, January 12, 2008 in the Grand Oaks Ballroom at the Sanctuary Hotel beginning at 5:00 p.m.   

Now celebrating its 20^th year  as a professional company, Charleston Ballet Theatre directed by Don & Patricia Cantwell   and Jill Eathorne . Bahr have achieved national prominence for the Company through their dedication to artistic integrity and the provision of a distinctive repertory that includes the  renowned choreography of George Balanchine and José Limon, as well as the original highly distinctive choreography of Ms. Bahr. 

Presenting diverse works in an eclectic range of styles, the CBT has consistently received regional and national accolades for its vitality and professionalism, being declared the “primary jewel in Charleston’s artistic crown” [Post & Courier, February, 1997].  Reviews have continued to highlight the artistic prowess and  exceptional talent that distinguish the company and Ms. Bahr, whose choreographic work has been described as both “power-packed” and “startlingly inventive” by arts columnist Dottie Ashley [Post & Courier, 2004].  The Charleston Ballet Theatre is an integral part of Charleston's cultural life and sets a standard in its artistic professionalism, integrity, and overall commitment to the community—sharing the art of dance with the community’s school children, with dancers-in-training, and with local, regional and national audiences.

During this weekend, the Sancutuary hotel will be hosting the Second Annual Seaside Serenade Weekend,  January 11-13, 2008.  For more information, please visit the link below.
