Creating Scheherazade

Alonzo collaborated with extraordinary musicians, artists and fashion designers in creating this incredible production. But he can't do it without you. The right resources to support the highest level of production for Scheherazade will make the difference between good and great. Your support at any level is most appreciated and will help Alonzo create this unique work.

For those who invest $250 or more, we will provide you with behind the scenes access including:

• Entrée into the rehearsal studio to experience the creation process first hand as Alonzo and the dancers work together building this new performance piece.
• Updates on the creation process of Scheherazade such as comments and reactions from the dancers, photos from rehearsals, and inside information on the design elements.
• Priority seating at the San Francisco 2010 Fall Season arranged through our giving office.

And for gifts of $1,000 or more:

• A lecture-demonstration with the dancers that provides rich insight into the choreographic process.
• And of course all the benefits related to our Inner Circle membership.

Yes! I want to help produce Scheherazade!
