WiBA invites you to join us for a special evening of dance at Elmhurst Ballet School, associate school of Birmingham Royal Ballet based in Edgbaston, Birmingham. The evening will start with an exclusive VIP drinks and canapés reception at 6pm, with curtains up in Elmhurst’s fabulous theatre at 7pm.
This exclusive performance is for VIP guests only and showcases the work of Elmhurst’s talented and aspiring young dancers aged 11-19, some of whom will be performing at Elmhurst for the final time before joining prestigious ballet companies all over the world. A variety of classic repertoire and brand new choreography, the show includes performances in ballet, contemporary and jazz.
Booking coming soon, save the date!
Join WiBA members and guests for a gentle stroll around Birmingham and soak up the early evening atmosphere, sights and sounds whilst talking and 'net-walking' together.
Net-Walking is a great way to fit in some light exercise at your own pace whilst chatting with likeminded women in business to share your news, business and build relationships with business contacts and friends old and new. Along the route we will stop to grab a drink at a pub or café on route – and hopefully be able to sit in lovely sunshine!
This event is open to members and guests and is free to attend (subject only to the cost of your drink purchase) although we do ask attendees to sign up in advance so we know who to look out for on the evening and whether we are all present to head off together! We will also ask for contact details to be provided just in case there are any changes on the evening – or to let you know which direction we have headed if you are running late!
Meet in the ground floor foyer of the Offices of Anthony Collins Solicitors, 134 Edmund Street, Birmingham, B3 2ES for a 6pm start.
Booking coming soon - save the date!
