Dorothée Gilbert sits in a chair upstage during a performance of the ballet Manon. She is costumed in an elegant and light-colored ruffled dress and clasps her hands to her chest. She is bathed in cool lighting, and in the background, others in costume sit on the floor.

Patrica Delgado, wearing a hot pink half-sleeve leotard with black pants, leads Miami City Ballet dancers in rehearsal. She is shown in the center of the frame, with over ten dancers shown behind her in rows, all wearing colorful layers of dance clothes with pointe or ballet shoes. They all stand facing the left side of the photo, their arms stretched out in front of them, crossed at the forearm with hands loosely clasped together. The dancers look upward or toward their hands; Delgado, smiling, looks from the corner of her eye toward the front.

A black-and-white archival image of Arthur Mitchell posing in front of a neutral backdrop, his arms extended to either side with palms flexed up. He leans back with his hips forward, both feet on demi pointe as he crosses his left leg over his right.

Two photos separated horizontally by a pink line. On the left, Herman Cornejo wears a white and gold Spanish-style costume as he leans back in a deep sideways lunge, his front foot in forced arch. He lifts his top arm high with a proud curve and rests his other hand on his hip as he looks down toward his back leg. Corps members sit and watch behind. On the right, James Whiteside partners Gillian Murphy, who poses in attitude derriere on pointe with swan-like arms and a dramatic arch in her back. Whiteside bends back too and points his left leg in tendu a la seconde. Murphy wears a white swan-like tutu; Whiteside wears a Renaissance-style costume with white tights and a green jacket with puffy sleeves.

Logan Savard is shown against a red background with a spotlight haloing his upper body and head. He is wearing a suit: his jacket and pants are black, his dress shirt is white, and his tie has diagonal black-and-red stripes. Savard is looking upward with his arms thrown in the air above his head, palms facing out. He is surrounded by a flurry of blank pieces of paper.
