Looking back at the 2018 Ballet Ball | The Emerald City

On April 28, the Royal Winnipeg Ballet invited guests to dine with RWB Company dancers in The Emerald City at the RWB’s 2018 Ballet Ball. Held at Fairmont Winnipeg, guests received an exclusive sneak peek performance to excerpts from the yet-to-premiere ballet, The Wizard of Oz.

The sold-out crowd was treated to an exquisite Wizard of Oz-inspired dinner served with Ruby Slipper cocktails. The IJL Emerald City Luxury Draw saw two lucky guests go home with a stunning emerald gem or two tickets to anywhere WestJet flies. A rollicking live auction featured prizes
like artwork by multimedia artist Ewa Tarsia, a year-long Dream Car lease from Birchwood Automotive, and a Churchill Summer Experience package for two.

CBC’s Sean Kavanagh emceed the night, guiding Ballet Ball guests through an unforgettable evening of performances by RWB School Recreational and Professional Division students as well as two performances by the RWB Company dancers: Mauricio Wainrot’s Carmina Burana and Septime Webre’s The Wizard of Oz, which will have its Canadian premiere in May 2019.
