WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT BALLET MOBILE
Ballet Mobile's theaters are wherever people may live. No matter how small and non-traditional the space may be, Ballet Mobile will transform it. Our audiences say it best.
December 9, 2018 - Weinberg Village - "People like us forget to dream, but you remind us that there are still reasons to dream and to never give up hope." "You take the show out of the dark theater and into the light, and you share that light with all of us." "You remind me of the pebble in the pond that makes big ripples. Your presence is felt long after you've gone." "Exquisite. Masterfully put together and a true work of art." "When I watch you it feels like all is right with the world." "I feel like I went to church." "Every moment was a gift."
December 2, 2018 - Heartlands Ellicott City - "I was transfixed by this very non-traditional Nutcracker. You brought new life to a classic story." "I've been your fan for almost 9 years, and today was the best ever." "I came here to pick up my mom and take her to lunch, but we decided to stay and watch. The performance ... reminded me to cherish the time we have together." "The story, the music, the dancing, and the voice-over were perfect. I'm only sorry that my wife wasn't here to see it with me.

I saw myself and my life every single minute - through every dance and all the music."
October 20, 2018 - Brightview Belair - "What a beautiful afternoon. I was transported." "I will let myself feel the joy you brought us for a long, long time." "Today brought tears, and I feel so uplifted." "Today made me think - about how long dance has existed, about Nietzsche and his thoughts, about beauty..."
