Last week, we welcomed hospital workers and veterans to attend a dress rehearsal and get a sneak peek of Raymonda. In creating Raymonda, Tamara Rojo was inspired by the story of Florence Nightingale, the founder of modern nursing. Inviting this group was a small way for us to show our thanks and appreciation for the community's commitment to compassionate care and contributions to our community. ??: Bay Area Healthcare professionals and veterans attending an open dress rehearsal of Rojo's Raymonda // ?
