Don't Miss the Ballet's Last Performance of the Season

Tharp's Nine Sinatra Songs

Complete with Red Carpet and Best Dressed Competition!

To celebrate the Alabama premiere of Twyla Tharp's Nine Sinatra Songs, Alabama Ballet and Saks Fifth Avenue have created an exciting red carpet event with a special offer just for you!

Prior to our Saturday night April 4^th performance, beginning at 6:30 PM, the Ballet will host a red carpet event honoring our city's Best Dressed Couples (that could be a lady and a gentleman, or two ladies and two gentlemen, a mother and a daughter-you choose!)  There will be a distinguished panel of judges to award three $200 certificates to Saks for "Most Sophisticated"  "Most Glamorous"  "Most Innovative."  Walk down the red carpet at Samford's Wright Center, be seen, photographed and judged for your personalized outfit. Cocktails will precede the show at Brio.

For Ballet Women's Committee members only, purchase one full-price ticket and get the second ticket for free!  Saks wants Guild members to have an "added advantage" so they are issuing a 15% Saks Gift Card at the time of your ballet purchase.  This discount gives you the perfect opportunity to purchase a swanky new outfit or some fabulous accessories.

Here's how it works.  Just visit Saks' 2^nd floor General Office , Mon-Sat between 9A-5p and Sunday, noon - 6 pm beginning Wednesday, March 11^th.  Receive two ticket "vouchers" and your 15% Saks discount.  The discount is to be used Sunday, March 22 through Saturday, March 28^th.

Option 1: When you come the night of the ballet, come early with vouchers in hand.  You will exchange your vouchers for tickets at Samford's ticket window.  Remember, one voucher represents a free ticket, the other you will pay for.  Option 2: Visit the Alys Stephen's Box Office (our ticketing agent) located at 1200 10^th Avenue South- on the UAB campus and select seats ahead of time.  You're sure to get the best selection this way.

With on-stage fashions by Oscar de la Renta, and memorable tunes by ‘ol Blue Eyes himself, Sinatra Songs is the perfect ballet for Red Carpet glamour! For more information, call Leslie Cooper at 205-322-9095 or email lesliecooper@alabamaballet.org.
