"The performance culminates the Summer Dance Intensive 2016 program and various technique classes. The dancers will perform the choreography they learned in the intensive third week of repertory focusing on technique, choreography, and rehearsals, ending with the production of the work. This is a big challenge for these aspiring dancers and also an opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned in the program," said Director Paula K. Shiff, recipient of Salem State University's 2009 Lifetime Achievement Award in the Arts, who trained at the Boston Ballet and in New York and performed with the Boston Ballet Company.
The Marblehead School of Ballet's 2016 Summer Dance Intensive program was sponsored in part by The Ruth N. Shiff Memorial Fund. For further information about the MSB, the NSCB, The Ruth N. Shiff Memorial Fund or the performance, call 781-631-6262 or send an e-mail.
