Discovered fabulous photos of the Oakland A’s Dancing!
“When Dave came to the studio, he was funny and lighthearted. There were lots of giggles. When we performed, I remember the audience was laughing a bit, but absolutely cheering at the end. Nothing like that had ever been done before. Oakland Ballet was the first.”

The Marbeth Legacy Project
We started curating and uploading the Marbeth Legacy Project photograph collection into its own CD DigitalVault™.
Marbeth Elizabeth Schnare, known simply as “Marbeth” in the industry, had an idiosyncratic and candid photographic style that memorialized her subjects in priceless ways. She was loved and respected by dancers and performers worldwide. Through her photos, she chronicled their stories.
Check out our social media posts on both Facebook and Instagram as we highlight some gems from the collection.
