"PBT Connects" to its audience with exciting pre-performance programming at the theater.
Insights: Informative and entertaining experiences held in the perfromance venue prior to a performance. Guests may include members of our resident artistic staff and/or visiting artists.
Afterthoughts: After certain performances, the audience is invited to stay for a post-performance conversation with Artistic Director Terrence S. Orr, members of the artistic staff, and dancers. This is a great opportunity to ask questions and express your thoughts about the performance you have just seen.
Talks with Terry: Sunday afternoon at 1:00 PM, before the subscriber matinee performance, Artistic Director Terrence S. Orr hosts an informal conversation in the theater. You may watch the dancers' class on stage and then engage in a conversation with Mr. Orr about ballet, the artists, and the production.
The "Family Pointe": This matinee "insider" preview is a pre-performance program designed to appeal to families with children between the ages of five and fourteen; however, "children" of all ages are welcome. Held in the Benedum Center rehearsal studios from 12:30-1:30 PM, these interactive programs educate and entertain by looking at various aspects of the ballet performance.
