With this program we hope to offer human contact to those who have suffered most during the pandemic, by bringing them beauty and gentleness – reflecting as we do the values that made up the DNA of Les Grands Ballets: social justice, diversity and inclusiveness without labeling.
In brief, the series Gratitude and Generosity is intended for all those living through an economically precarious situation, or one of social exclusion, emotional distress or marginalization.
Les Grands Ballets invites these clienteles to attend performances, free of charge, to enjoy a moment of entertainment, happiness and respite.
