America (RDA), formerly the
National Association for Regional Ballet, began in 1956 when eight companies
met in Atlanta, Georgia to share choreography, classes and performances.
In 1963 a national organization was formed and the Pacific Region's first
official Festival was held in 1966 by Deane and Barbara Crockett of the
Sacramento Civic Ballet.
