The Ballet Attends the Symphony Summer Pops

Bohuslav Rattay, conductor of the Lake Charles Symphony pauses after the show with Lady Holly Hathaway Kaough, Artistic Director of Lake Charles Civic Ballet and some of the company’s performing members.

Dancers have been busy all summer rehearsing and training for the upcoming season, but they took a break Saturday, July 16 to enjoy the Lake Charles Symphony Summer Pops featuring the Austin, TX based band Asleep at the Wheel. Besides the premier of the Harry Potter finale, the Summer Pops is the must see event of the season.

Lady Holly bought pizzas for the dancers, rewarding those who had worked so hard all week, but the girls had none of that. They are in serious training mode, and were seen sipping water and joining in for the last number on the dance floor. A fabulous time was had by all, highlighted by a photo op with Maestro Bohuslav Rattay! LCCB is already marking the calendar for next year’s event.
