Tampa City Ballet<\/a> is pulling back the curtain on how dance is made before it ever reaches the stage. <\/p>\n

This intimate evening inside its rehearsal room brings together finished works from the company\u2019s repertoire alongside a live, in-progress choreographic demonstration led by guest choreographer Osnel Delgado.<\/p>\n

Audiences will see excerpts ranging from classical pointe work to contemporary pieces, offering a snapshot of the company\u2019s stylistic range. Between performances, attendees are invited into the process itself. Dancers and artists take questions, discuss collaboration and show how pieces take shape in real time. <\/p>\n

\u201cA lot of people go to the theater and see the full piece already done,\u201d TCB founder and artistic director Paula Nu\u00f1ez told Creative Loafing Tampa. \u201cThis is a chance to understand what happens behind the scenes\u2013how the work actually grows.\u201d <\/p>\n

It\u2019s designed as an intimate gathering, with limited seating, light bites and wine, and room to connect, reflecting Tampa City Ballet\u2019s broader mission. <\/p>\n

The series will continue monthly in rotating locations around Tampa Bay, alongside a busy spring season that includes the free Dance Now Festival at Water Works Park in March and the company\u2019s Emerging and Resident Artists program in April.<\/p>\n

Tickets are $25 for An Evening Behind the Curtain with Tampa City Ballet, happening Friday, Feb. 13 in Tampa.<\/a><\/p>\n
