Have you ever dreamed of attending a ball at Versailles and meeting Marie Antoinette?
Most of this dream will come true on March 31, 2019, when the third Gala Dinner of the Friends of the Royal Opera to benefit The Royal Opera of Versailles, presents the Marie-Antoinette, a ballet of 22 dancers choreographed by Thierry Malandain with the music of Joseph Haydn and Christoph Willibald Gluck.
In case that wasn’t enough to spoil you, there’s even more; first, a pre-concert of Te Deum and Messe à quatre chœurs by Marc-Antoine Charpentier, then a Champagne reception followed by the ballet, a Champagne reception again after the ballet (you can never be too rich, too thin, or drink too much Champagne!) followed by a multi-course seated dinner in the incredible Gallery of Battles, the largest room in Versailles measuring 390 feet by 42 feet.
Dress code: tuxedos of course for the gents and haute couture or fab ready-to wear gown for the ladies. Break open that safe and pile the jewels on. Marie Antoinette wouldn’t accept anything less.
The cost for this extravagant, once in a lifetime experience? Sorry but I don’t post and tell.

By the way if you need a date, my tuxedo is pressed, cleaned and ready to go.

That could be your name on the place card.
If you haven't already seen my Eye Prefer Paris exhibit, it's on until March 31.
