Arts Ballet Theatre of Florida: Spring Gala

Arts Ballet Theatre of Florida concludes its 2026–2027 season with a spectacular Spring Ballet Gala, celebrating the Company's 30th Anniversary through an extraordinary evening of classical and contemporary ballet.

The program features Maestro Vladimir Issaev's acclaimed interpretation of The Rite of Spring, Igor Stravinsky's groundbreaking masterpiece that redefined the world of dance. The evening also includes the celebrated Flower Festival Pas de Deux, choreographed by August Bournonville, one of the finest examples of the Danish classical ballet tradition, renowned for its elegance, buoyancy, and brilliant technical artistry.

Completing the program are two dynamic works by Vladimir Issaev: Taiko Mix, an exhilarating fusion of powerful movement and rhythmic energy inspired by traditional Japanese drumming, and El Encuentro, a vibrant and passionate ballet celebrating the rich musical traditions and spirit of Latin America.

Bringing together timeless classics and contemporary creations, the Spring Ballet Gala is a fitting finale to Arts Ballet Theatre of Florida's 30th Anniversary Season, celebrating three decades of artistic excellence, innovation, and a lasting commitment to sharing the beauty of dance with South Florida audiences.
