An ad in the NYT indicated that M Gomes will perform in the Fire Island Dance Festival:

It's not clear to me which portion of the festival Gomes will participate in.

Thanks for the Link.  Currently, there's a video of Danny Tidwell dancing solo on a dance floor placed right at the edge of the Great South Bay.  It's a fantastic setting, with beautiful lighting at late afternoon.  The line up for this season is impressive as well:

For Gomes fans in south Florida this summer, he and Julie Kent are scheduled to dance in the Boca Ballet production of Giselle, July 30-31 and August 1.   (Location, Florida Atlantic University, Boca Raton, Florida).  It's a school company, but does high level work and manages to attract in some of the best guest artists in the business (as is the case this year).
