Celebrating Over 30 Years ...

Garden City Ballet (GCB) is the home of Missoula's very own production of The Nutcracker. We proudly offer this holiday tradition and are lucky to work with outstanding performers and their families, as well as exceptional teachers, choreographers and guest artists from across the region and country. GCB does not operate its own dance studio. Instead, we invite all dancers, regardless of studio affiliation, to audition for what has become a treasured community event!

 

Audition Boot Camp - Summer Ballet Workshop!

All Advanced and Intermediate dancers, ages 13 and older, are invited.

New time for Week One is 6:00 - 8:00pm!

CLICK HERE for the registration form (updated) and details. 

Early registration deadline:  June 30

(Registration fee of $20 applies after July 1)

 

2018 Nutcracker - Open Auditions

From the menu bar, go to The Nutcracker, then Auditions, and you will find a "CLICK HERE to register online" link towards the top of the page. There is also important information to download from the audition flier. 

 

Raising Funds for the School Show

GCB has a proud tradition of funding a school performance (K - 8th grade) for Missoula and surrounding area children who might not otherwise have exposure to classical ballet and the performing arts. To offset the cost of providing a free show for kids, we reach out to our community and raise funds each year. GCB is grateful to our donors who make holiday dreams come true! (For more information, please visit our Fundraising page.)

 

Thank You to our Growing List of 2018 Donors!

(Through the generosity of the following people and organizations, GCB has reached $3251.50 of our $30,000 annual goal...)
