Welcome

South Georgia Ballet is a regional ballet company founded in 1998 by Alison Bundrick, Director of South Georgia Performing Arts. The South Georgia Ballet Company is designed to provide additional training and challenging performing opportunities necessary for the serious dancer. Dancers age 9-18 audition each spring and fall for the upcoming year and come from a seven county area in South Georgia and North Florida. The Company presents The Nutcracker each December and an original ballet each spring. Past performances have included Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Alice in Wonderland, Beauty and the Beast, and The Wizard of Oz.

Under the direction of Alison Bundrick, Founder and Artistic Director, Company dancers are given professional instruction and are exposed to classical repertory. Company dancers receive further training with regional and national instructors and choreographers including Suzanne Farrell, Jane Wood, Orialis Serrano, Kevin Martin, Nicolas Pacaña, Pamela Robinson-Harris, Peter Swan, Henry Hernandez, and Fiona Fairrie. Guest instructors and master classes enrich the company class schedule, which involves additional weekly classes and Saturday rehearsals. South Georgia Ballet made its first guest appearance in Albany Ballet Theatre's Nutcracker in December 1998 and this season will mark our 11th annual performance. The 2008 Nutcracker returns to the Thomasville Municipal Auditorium on December 13 and 14.
