On April 8th, artsScene Edmonton together with the Albert Ballet hosted an exclusive behind the scenes event for another sold out crowd!  Just over 50 young professional shared a great night with food, friends and a sneak preview to the  Alberta Ballet’s performance of Songs of a Wayfarer and The Seven Deadly Sins, featuring the Edmonton Opera and accompanied by the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra.

Hosted in the Jubilees Luxury suite, everyone enjoyed drinks and socializing before heading to the main hall for a full performance dress rehearsal.  Followed by backstage tours lead by the Alberta Ballet to let artsSceners listen in on the artistic Director critique and provide feedback for the dancers, complete with a stop at the dressing room to check out costumes, including the giant potato-chip used in the second performance!

Thanks to Jennifer and Mickey at the Alberta Ballet and to everyone who came out in the snowy weather for a great evening! And Thanks again to Jason Everitt for capturing the event with his photos!

Hope to see you out at TEDx Canadian Rockies!
