    Ballet of the Dolls is the quirky little gem in the Twin Cities’ crown of lively arts. And it is your opportunity to become a royal member of this court during Fashion Ball. It is an evening when dance, theatre and fashion collide, in the glamorous, off-beat style the Dolls are famous for.

    As the night kicks off, guests partake in signature cocktails, fabulous food and a unique silent auction in the charming lobby of the historic Ritz Theater. Then they are then invited to enjoy the show. Fashion and dance explode onto the stage creating a wild, otherworldly effect. After the performance, the audience is invited back stage for a bazaar filled with novel goods for sale from local shop owners, designers and artists. And, of course, guests enjoy more cocktails and food while mingling with the performers and models.

    Fashion Ball is the only fundraising event that the company does in the season. Proceeds from this event will go to furthering all of the programs of Ballet of the Dolls, including: education and outreach programs, company training, archive and documentation, and most importantly, to help insure that there is a bright future to foster new work by the company for the next 25 years.
