ANNUAL SUPPORT • $100+

YOUR INVITATION INTO THE WORLD OF POINTEWORKS

Meet the Cast

Ballet Society supporters are always invited to meet the cast at events like our post-performance reception for Compositions at the Balboa Theatre in 2026—an opportunity to connect with the artists after the curtain comes down.
