<p>The holiday season brings with it countless opportunities to spread love and joy to those around us. Ballet Philippines is going beyond bringing back the magic of Christmas not just to fans of ballet, but also to public school children and individuals from underserved communities.</p><div><br/></div><p><strong>SHARE THE MAGIC </strong>is a CSR program initiated by Ballet Philippines. Through this initiative, the company has managed to share the magic of dance to over 10,000 beneficiaries. This includes, among many others, <strong>DepEd SPED, Girls Scouts of the Philippines, Open School of Music, Pag-Asa Foundation, </strong>and <strong>Concordia Children’s Foundation</strong>. Since it was first launched, Share The Magic has helped to uplift spirits  and bring inspiration to those whose minds are in their formative years.  </p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/71de7259-4c8c-4ced-b334-136ba5213912_nutcracker_poster_square-1.jpg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/></span></span></div><div><br/></div><p>The program also extends to <strong>MEN IN UNIFORM</strong>, this unique program honors gallant men and women in uniform by treating them to an evening of art, dance, and culture. As defenders of our country, Ballet Philippines pays homage to the dedication and courage of our men and women in the military, navy and air force. </p><div><br/></div><p>Family members and loved ones of these everyday heroes are also welcomed into the theater, making a special occasion out of the ballet. Ballet Philippines is the only dance company today, to pay tribute to our men and women in service through the arts. </p><div><br/></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/a41470f9-3d09-4882-bdc9-7080fb60b75f_meninuniform_3.jpg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/></span></span></div><div><br/></div><p><strong>Ballet Philippines President </strong><strong>and</strong> <strong>CEO Kathleen Liechtenstein</strong> shares, “Performance art forms like the ballet goes beyond entertainment and culture. We also believe that this art form is a means for us to help heal and reach out to the less fortunate. Through our Share The Magic Program and Men In Uniform we embrace and open our doors to a larger audience giving them the complete Christmas magic experience. It is our hope that this simple act of bringing them to the ballet—even for just two hours—will fill them with joy and inspiration.” </p><div><br/></div><p>As 2022 marks the company’s return to the grand stage, so too does Share The Magic and Men In Uniform. During the performance of <strong>Ballet Philippines&#x27; The Nutcracker </strong>this December, the theater doors open to welcome beneficiaries from <strong>Young Focus, Kythe Foundation, Teach for the Philippines</strong>, and <strong>PHINMA Foundation</strong>. </p><div><em>Learn more about Share the Magic and Men in Uniform at the <a href="http://www.ballet.ph" target="_blank">Ballet Philippines website</a>.
