If you love sequins, lace, spandex, and feathers then you do not want to miss out on this special event. Also, if you’re still searching for the perfect Halloween costume, then set your calendar for this event. This month, for the first time in 53 years, Chicago’s Joffrey Ballet Dance Troupe will open its costume vault to the public. There will be over 200 costumes, for men and women, with prices starting at just $25.
The preview sale reception and silent auction will start at 5:30pm on Tuesday, October 27th (A $20 donation is suggested). Set reservations by going to www.Joffrey.org or calling (312)-386-8979.
The public sale begins the next day at 8am, on October 28th. I will be attending this bright and early. If you see me, say “Hi” and I’ll give you a high-five. You better get there early, or else someone else (ie. me) will David Blain all the good pieces. You don’t want to miss out!
If you happen to miss out on this awesome event, but you would still like to learn more about this company, then take a free tour! On the second and fourth Wednesday of every month, the Joffrey will host a tour at noon. For reservations, simply call 312-386-8912. If you happen to like what you see, then take a FREE dance class! The Official School of Joffrey offers a free dance class on the third Sunday of every month. To reserve your place, call 312-386-8910.
