dirac Posted March 30, 2004 Share Posted March 30, 2004 Thank you for the heads-up, art076, and welcome to the board! Finally NYCB heads in our direction. Now I have to sort out my vacation plans.............. Link to comment
Giannina Posted March 30, 2004 Share Posted March 30, 2004 I'm a subscriber to Orange County Performing Arts Center and didn't know of this schedule. Pray God it's part of the next season's subscription packet. Thanks for the news. Giannina (gotta remember to call the theater tomorrow!) Link to comment
dirac Posted March 31, 2004 Share Posted March 31, 2004 I get notices from them, too, although I live up north, but no heads-up about this so far. Link to comment
art076 Posted March 31, 2004 Author Share Posted March 31, 2004 NYCB will be part of Orange County's normal subscription season for 2004-2005 (along with ABT in November, Matthew Bourne's Nutcracker! in December, Alvin Ailey, and a return visit from the Eifman Ballet); the anouncement of the season was sent out via newspapers and is up on their web site in early February. However, they haven't begun dance series renewals yet - and thus haven't sent anything out directly to subscribers, which is probably why you haven't gotten anything in the mail about that. But I found out by looking at the Center's web site (www.ocpac.org). As for the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion dates, those were anounced just this morning alongside the rest of the Music Center's 04-05 season - and that, too, includes more ABT in addition to NYCB. The Music Center does have a subscription series also, but its only their second full dance season (they've self presented individual dance companies before, but this will be part of a full season).

dirac Posted March 31, 2004 Share Posted March 31, 2004 Thanks for the additional details. Those website thingies certainly do come in handy, don't they? Link to comment
