The James River Valley (VA) Chapter of The Links, Incorporated and The Links Foundation, Incorporated bring to Richmond for the first time, the Columbia City Ballet’s critically acclaimed, Off the Wall and Onto the Stage: Dancing the Art of Jonathan Green. This is a benefit ballet performance.

The ballet described as…” ingenious and fabulous” …by The New York Times…” uses William Starrett’s breathtaking choreography to bring to life 22 paintings by renowned artist Jonathan Green. Green is hailed as one of the most important contemporary painters of the Southern experience. His bold, vibrant works of art depict the lifestyles and landscapes of his native low country, South Carolina, Gullah community. The ballet called …” profound and soulful” … by the Tampa Tribune has generated sellout crowds in New York, Chicago, the Carolinas, Georgia, and Florida.

This 1.2-million-dollar production showcases hundreds of dazzling, handmade costumes and an exhilarating mix of jazz, gospel, classical, Motown and Caribbean music. The Richmond event features cameo performances by RVA’s celebrated songstress, Desiree Roots and the famed Virginia Union University Choir.

Honorary co-chairs of this benefit performance are actress and philanthropist, Daphne Maxwell Reid, the Richmond Ballet’s artistic director, Stoner Winslett, actor and director Tim Reid and Kym Grinnage, VP & Gen. Mgr. WWBT/NBC12 & WUPV/CW.
