These two performances on November 5th will feature two dynamic casts of outstanding VPA Dance students performing at 6:30pm and 8:00pm. Each performance will begin with Tchaikovsky’s The Sleeping Beauty ballet prologue complete with waltzing courtiers, tenderhearted fairies bringing blessings for an infant princess Aurora, and the malevolent fairy Carabosse intent on vengeful wrath! The second part of the evening’s program is a fast-paced exhibition of contemporary dance and modern jazz that will feature choreography by New York City based company director Jon Lehrer and demonstrate the outstanding versatility of the NPHS VPA Dance students.
