Barre Society - Rehearsal & Drinks with the Dancers

Local young professionals of The Barre Society gathered in Studio K for a private rehearsal viewing of Tulsa Ballet's principal dancer Ma Cong rehearsing his piece Calling on fellow company dancers. Set to Balkan-inspired music, Barre Society members commented on how unique and fun Cong's movements were, some of them even wishing to join the dancers on the stage and "groove" with them.

Following rehearsal, Urban Furnishings hosted a cocktail party for the Barre Society and dancers to mingle, enjoy champagne and converse over the beautiful furniture of Natuzzi Italia. Guests were greeted with a red carpet and photographers to capture the fun evening. By the end of the night, we welcomed some new members to The Barre Society!
