RECAP - The Washington Ballet's Aladdin

Last month FRDS had it's first ever dance field trip!

On March 18th, a group of nearly 25 students, parents, friends and family made a trip up to the Thearch Theatre in Washignton, DC. The afternoon began with some of us gathering at the studio to then carpol up to the city, while others meet us at the Theatre. Dinner for those of us carpooling turned out to be wonderful - who knew such a large party could be in and out of Outback Steakhouse so quickly! Then, most importantly the house lights dimmed, the pre-show announments were made and the show began!! The stunning dancers of the Washington Ballet performing Aladdin was captivating and exciting, all the while still emotional and beautifully breathtaking! With some sleepy heads on the ride home, we made it back to Front Royal right on time. We were all thankful for the possibilty to experianced the beatiful art of Ballet.

"You don't have to know about ballet to enjoy it, all you have to do is look at it."~ Edwin Denby

We hope next season you will be able to join in on the fun and great experience!
