Young performers give dance a chance
DanceChance, a program at Pacific Northwest Ballet, allows students who show they have the physical ability to become professional dancers with classical training that they otherwise wouldn’t have.
DanceChance partnered with Keith Saunders from Dance Theatre of Harlem to instruct one of their classes. Dance Theatre of Harlem is having performances this Friday and Saturday, Nov. 16-17, at The Moore, 8 p.m. You can find more info about the event or find tickets at http://stgpresents.org.
PNB is to be commended for making ballet accessible to boys and girls of all backgrounds. DanceChance offers a wonderful opportunity to discover kids with talent, and to give kids the chance to discover talent within themselves that they were unaware of. Thank you PNB for this program and thank you KOMO for this good-news story.
