KerriMartinsen Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 Hello! I am the Costume Director at the Carolina Ballet in Raleigh NC. I've joined this group to gain insight on professional dancers needs/ wants/ requests or how other costumers deal with similar situations that come up reguarding shoes, costumes, tights, etc. We are a Freed pointe shoe company and often have shoes that dancers can't use anymore for a variety of reasons. We would love to sell them to dancers that can use them before they dryrot away. If there is an approperate place to list this, I would love to hear it! Nice to meet you all!

carbro Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 Nice to meet you, too, Kerri, and welcome to BalletTalk! We are actually a site for the audience. I think you'll find what you want at our sister site, BalletTalk for Dancers. They have a special forum, the Pro Shop, for the artisans behind the scenes, including those who tend wardrobes, and another devoted to pointe shoes. I strongly recommend that before you post about wanting to sell shoes, you contact Ms. Leigh to ask permission. I suspect they have policies against selling and trading through the site. If you join BalletTalk for Dancers, you'll have to register separately. Quote Link to comment
