Nicolas Scheuer & Friends Gala

For those passionate about ballet, a Gala is an incredibly exciting event. These followers attend to witness their stars' virtuosity, charisma, and the sheer thrill of being part of such a breathtaking experience. For newcomers to the world of ballet, a Gala offers a comprehensive overview of the most beautiful ballets, all in one evening. 

The excitement and delight are amplified when a Gala is created by Nicolas Scheuer and the stars who gather around him. Nicolas has proven to be the only dancer capable of successfully producing such an event under his own name. Trained at the Bolshoi School, his brilliant career took off immediately following his entry into the company, with invitations to perform at the world's most prestigious theaters.

Nicolas's media attention and presence as a guest star at major events have made him a unique figure and a world-class dancer. His ability to attract large crowds and create enthusiasm is further demonstrated by the Gala *Nicolas Scheuer & Friends*, featuring a splendid group of dancers from around the globe. Nicolas selects only the best dancers who have made significant impacts on the dance community to perform in his Gala.

This event offers a unique opportunity to admire many of the most famous dancers in our community on stage. The beauty of this occasion lies in the audience's experience of diverse techniques, schools, and styles of these world-class dancers. The program of the Gala changes with each performance, but the dancers always perform pieces ranging from beloved classical repertoire to modern and contemporary ballets.

The Nicolas Scheuer & Friends Gala features top Nashville and world dancers and offers a unique blend of classical and contemporary performances to celebrate the Nashville dance community, NSDA's three years of success, and our dreams for the future. This is our first step toward a bigger dream: a new location for NS Dance Academy. All proceeds raised from the Nicolas Scheuer & Friends Gala will go toward that goal.
