Kathy Mata Ballet is pleased to announce its THIRTIETH YEAR ANNIVERSARY theater performance in the beautiful, state-of-the-art theater at Mercy High School, in San Francisco. The program will feature "Orpheus in the Underworld," a full-length classical, romantic, mystical, and adventurous story ballet, choreographed and set on the entire company of volunteer dancers by Joshua Ugarte, with assistance by his dance partner and the company's dance master, Sachiko Kwan. The company will also introduce their newest contemporary ballet medley, Just Another Ordinary Day (Musical Suite), which includes modern ballet and musical theater -- plus guest performances!
Admission is free, although donations are always gratefully welcomed. All proceeds support the company's expenses, such as renting rehearsal and performance spaces.
We look forward to seeing you at our next show!

HISTORY:
Founded in 1988, Kathy Mata Ballet is one of few dance companies in the U.S. to provide talented adults from non-dance professions with opportunities to train and perform, rehearsing several times a week, on top of their regular work days. The company has an emphasis on community service, performing (when possible) at senior centers and other community organizations across the Bay Area/San Francisco. Their performances, free of charge or by donation, benefit seniors, veterans, and local charities.
