YAGP 25th ANNIVERSARY GALA: “Stars of Today Meet the Stars of Tomorrow”

 

Thursday, April 18th

SEE THE FUTURE OF DANCE TODAY! 25 years ago, Youth America Grand Prix (YAGP) changed the way the dance world looks for talent. Today, it is the #1 source of talented dancers for the world’s dance schools and companies, with 450 YAGP alumni dancing in 80 companies around the globe, including The Royal Ballet, Paris Opera Ballet, New York City Ballet and American Ballet Theatre.

The YAGP 25th ANNIVERSARY GALA is a spectacular evening of dance featuring a stellar international cast from the world’s leading dance companies. See electrifying young dance talent (“Stars of Tomorrow”) share the stage with today’s most celebrated dance stars (“Stars of Today”).

Proceeds from the Gala will go directly toward scholarships for gifted young dance students who wish to pursue a professional career in dance – and to help YAGP’s efforts to help displaced Ukrainian dance students.

JOIN THE CELEBRATION and be part of dance history!
