What we see onstage is the result of countless hours of toil, sweat, failure and resilience. It is only by becoming a stronger person on the inside that we get to the seemingly effortless level of confidence exuded by our students.
This is as true in life as it is in dance.
Milwaukee Ballet School & Academy is proud to present Alice in Wonderland, an all-school 2022 Spring Student Showcase originally created by former MBSA Director Rolando Yanes. The 2022 showcase returns to the South Milwaukee Performing Arts Center (SMPAC) stage for four live performances.
All classes Pre-Ballet I and higher will rehearse during their regularly scheduled classes. Mandatory dress rehearsals and performance dates in May have been assigned for each class, as well. All students enrolled in Pre-Ballet I through Academy II as of January 23, 2022 are eligible to participate, but must maintain regular class attendance and attend their scheduled dress rehearsal and performances.

Tickets on sale Thursday April, 14
Tickets purchased before May 26 are $23 each for all attendees ages 3 and up. Children under 3 years of age are free, but a ticket is still required. Tickets purchased on May 26 or later will be $30 each. Please save time and money by purchasing your tickets in advance!
All tickets are reserved seating and will be on sale through the South Milwaukee Performing Arts Center Box Office. Tickets are not available through Milwaukee Ballet and student discounts do not apply.
We strongly encourage you to purchase tickets in advance because the SMPAC box office is only one window and will not be able to accommodate a great deal of walk-up sales and will call the day of the show. Order your tickets early so they can be mailed to you before performance day and save $7 per ticket!
