October 23-26, 2014 Ron Cunningham s Sacramento Ballet 2014-2015 6oth Anniversary Season Honoring Barbara Crockett, Founder Dear Friends, December 6-21, 2014 Ron Cunningham s The 2014-2015 season celebrates the 60 th anniversary of the founding of the Sacramento Ballet by the legendary Barbara Crockett. This historic occasion is commemorated with a season of blockbuster story ballet classics highlighting the triumphs of its past and the bright vision of its future. A founding member of the original San Francisco Opera Ballet, Barbara enjoyed a rich and diverse career as a dancer and toured widely with partner Alan Howard of Ballet Russe fame. Moving to Sacramento to start a school and raise a family, she and her late husband, Deane Crockett, created the Sacramento Ballet in 1954. The happy result was the development of generations of dancers exported to companies all over the world, adding greatly to the reputation of Barbara as a master teacher. In 1985, Barbara desired to transition the Sacramento Ballet into a fully professional company and began an exploration to realize her dream. In 1987, Barbara retired and passed the reigns of artistic direction on to husband and wife team, Ron Cunningham and Carinne Binda. Still teaching today, Barbara remains the spiritual icon of the Sacramento Ballet. We invite you to join us for the historic 2014-2015 season to honor her great contribution to the cultural fabric of Sacramento and celebrate her extraordinary life and outstanding achievements. Sincerely, Ron Cunningham & Carinne Binda Artistic Directors Thank You to our Season Sponsor: The WORLD PREMIERE February 13-15, 2015 Ron Cunningham s March 26-29, 2015 Swan Lake May 8-9, 2015 Sacramento City College Main Stage theater
