In this episode, we've turned the tables on show host Jim Sparrow, as he takes a turn in the interview chair. In his roll as Fort Wayne Ballet's Executive Director, he gives us a glimpse into the structure and the day-to-day mechanics of operating a ballet company. Find out what goes into a production from a fiscal standpoint, with the behind-the-scenes costs of staging, costuming, sets, courting trusts, and satisfying sponsors. Jim gives us the ins and outs of ballet as a business, as Kinetic Conversations takes ballet Beyond the Nutcracker.
