Ballet Califia is a non-profit dance company and ballet school created to bring the experience of dance to our community. This is their fifteenth year of producing quality ballet performances at the Spreckels Performing Arts Center in Rohnert Park.
Ballet Califia's executive director is Shelley Scott. Artistic director for the company is David McNaughton. Shelley and David have both been principal dancers for the New York City Ballet and the San Francisco Ballet. David also composes music and has written and choreographed several original ballets. Shelley is a costume designer and has sewn most of the costumes for the fifteen years of Ballet Califia's productions. David designs and builds sets and is also a master at painting amazing scenes for the enormous full stage backdrops.
With their world-class professional background, this multi-talented couple brings their creative energy to each of their productions and to each of their dance students. It's quite an experience to learn from one of the last ballerinas to work with George Balanchine and to dance with a professional who could make an audience gasp in unison with his leaps.
