The Fort Wayne Ballet presents two performances of their Studio Series: Director’s Choice 2, Friday-Saturday, Nov. 8-9, at Studio A on the second floor of Auer Center for Arts & Culture. 

The special evening will provide audiences with an up-close dance experience that showcases the artistry and athleticism of FWB’s Professional Company dancers. 

The show also provides a chance to get to know the dancers as they answer audience questions about their careers as professional dancers and what being part of a professional ballet company entails. 

As a special bonus, a few sneak peek excerpts from everyone’s holiday favorite, The Nutcracker, will be included during the evening before it moves to a full showing at the Robert Goldstine Performing Arts Center, Dec. 6-8.
