White Hat has kept its subscribers Informed since last century and has long become a Melbourne Institution for those Intelligent and Independent souls prepared to look beyond the bounds of either the mainstream -commercial or mainstream-alternative marketing machines. (However, be warned that we can occasionally be a little Irreverent.)

Bring your family and friends, a rug and a picnic and join The Australian Ballet for a breathtaking evening of ballet under the stars. This program opens with a selection of pas de deux from some of ballets best known works. Classics including La Favorita, Le Corsaire, Black Swan and The Nutcracker pas de deux plus show stoppers Spring Waters and Diana and Acteon. The evening concludes with Leonide Massine's Les Presages set in 1933 to Tchaikovsky's magnificent Fifth Symphony. This large scale work is artistically striking and full of awesome ensemble movements. This one off performance will be a fantastic opportunity to see The Australian Ballet's extraordinary dancers demonstrate their exuberance and technical brilliance in some of ballet's most popular repertoire. Please note that breakable drinking glasses, elevated seating, hard-sided hampers, coolers and eskies, weapons and dangerous items, domestic animals, items which could impede other people’s enjoyment will not be permitted into the venue.
