50’S Diner Dance
Saturday, September 9, 2023
Indiana Ballet Theatre’s Annual Fundraiser will take place at the Family Life Center in Merrillville, Indiana on Saturday, September 9, 2023. Our Annual Event theme for this year is “50’s DINER DANCE”. This fundraiser supports the Classical Arts Centre renovation project that will serve as the future home of IBT and a Northwest Indiana hub for all the arts.
The Classical Arts Centre is located at the northern gateway to Crown Point, the 1930’s Colonial Revival building served as the Nurses’ Home for the Lake County Tuberculosis Sanatorium which was located nearby. As one of the last such buildings in the world, it will become a wonderful addition and arts destination to Northwest Indiana. We are very close to completing the interior of the building thanks to the generosity and support from people and businesses like you!

Coppelia is a classical ballet based on a story by E.T.A. Hoffmann entitled “Der Sandmann” (“The Sandman”), which was published in 1815. The ballet premiered in 1870. Coppelia is a charming, funny and comical ballet for all ages. The classic ballet is full of humor and ballet mime. The story begins with Coppélius, a doctor who has made a life-size dancing doll. It is so lifelike that Franz, a village youth, becomes infatuated with it and sets aside his heart’s true desire, Swanhilda. She shows him his folly by dressing as the doll, pretending to make it come to life. Coppelia is a memorable and captivating ballet that is perfect for all audiences.
