Why does the ballet need your support?

Space Coast Ballet is a tax-exempt 501(c)3 non-profit organization
The scale and caliber of productions performed by the Space Coast Ballet are expensive. Production costs for productions like “Sleeping Beauty,” performed in 2005-2006, can cost most professional ballet companies as much as $2 million dollars. Without cutting corners, the Space Coast Ballet’s artistic directors manage the same production for just over $100,000 in costs.
Performing with the Brevard Symphony Orchestra is a considerable cost as is the King Center, contracting top dancers, marketing, etc.
As with other professional performing arts entities, ticket sales do not cover the cost of producing world-class ballets. Traditionally, professional ballet companies rely on individual and corporate contributions to the lion’s share of cost.
