The Poe Masquerade

A Spring Repertoire Celebration & Sneak Peek

Step into an evening shaped by Edgar Allan Poe—where dance, music, and story meet.

The Poe Masquerade reimagines Ballet 5:8’s annual spring repertoire preview as a shared experience. Instead of sitting back and watching, guests move through the space, encounter the work up close, and get an early look at what’s ahead.

Masquerade attire is welcome, not required.
Curiosity is the only requirement of the evening.
Tickets are $35 and include light bites, dancing and beverages.

What to Expect

This is not a formal presentation.
And it’s not a traditional performance.

It’s an evening built for movement, conversation, and discovery.

Guests explore The House of Poe, moving from room to room and encountering short excerpts from Ballet 5:8’s upcoming spring repertoire—each one offering a glimpse into the themes, ideas, and physical worlds taking shape this season.

Come for part of the evening or stay for all of it. The night unfolds at your pace.
