Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre dancers delighted a Greensburg audience on Nov. 8 with their “Classical Romance” program in the Seton Hill University Performing Arts Center.

The performance was the culmination of a residency of PBT dancers at the university, working with dance students in six sessions over several weeks.

It also was sold out.

“We opened seats in the orchestra pit to accommodate youth dancers (and their families) from Westmoreland County who participated in the Master Class with PBT,” said Jennifer Reeger, Seton Hill director of communications and media relations. “It was a wonderful night!”

Dancers performed highlights from “Giselle” and “The Sleeping Beauty.”

Audience members had the opportunity to mingle with the artists at a post-performance reception.
