What: The Joffrey Ballet is excited to capture the magic of Ronald Hynd's The Merry Widow production with a glamorous luncheon, entitled “Lunch at Maxim’s: Celebrating The Merry Widow,” at the Four Seasons Chicago on Friday, February 11, 2011 at 12:00 p.m.  While paying tribute to the world renown French eatery, Maxim’s, the lunch will feature a spectacular raffle, indulgent Parisian-style pampering and creative cuisine.
 
Why: The festivities will raise funds for the Joffrey's Boeing Bridge Program -- a student focused dance program designed to introduce Chicago Public School students to the basic elements of ballet technique.  The Joffrey Ballet is proud to give back to the community while sharing the joy of dance with local students.
