The Art Farm at Serenbe is hosting a beautiful summer dinner on August 18 with a performance by Terminus Modern Ballet Theatre. The evening will feature a full meal catered by The Farmhouse at Serenbe restaurant, as well as specialty cocktails courtesy of Old Forth Distillery.

And while the food and drinks are sure to be heavenly, the part I’m most excited about is the live performance by Terminus Modern Ballet Theatre (TMBT).

Don’t worry, we’re not talking a yawn-inducing rendition of Swan Lake here. Instead, expect jaw-dropping original choreography that completely modernizes the longstanding art form of ballet.

Terminus Modern Ballet Theatre’s performances are truly magical. You’ve never seen how spellbinding, graceful, and transformative the art of dance can be until you’ve seen TMBT perform.

Think of TMBT dancers as the gold-winning Olympic athletes of ballet. These elite, classically trained principal dancers – who have worked for distinguished companies like the Atlanta Ballet, Royal Winnipeg Ballet, and Joffrey Ballet before TMBT – created this company in an effort to combine the classic and contemporary aspects of dance.  This means they build on their classical training by infusing their shows with updated elements, both in their movements and their surroundings.

Most of TMBT’s shows take place in an art-filled environment, and Art Over Dinner is no exception. Expect an idyllic setting, meaningful conversation with like-minded art lovers, phenomenal food, and a performance that will erase any preconceived notions you may have had about ballet.

Art Over Dinner takes place this Sunday, August 18, from 6 – 9 pm, at the Grange Hall Gallery at Serenbe. Tickets are $85/person and are available here.
