About this event

BORN DANCING Student-Created Performance Directed by Melissa van Wijk Please join us for the culminating performances of Born Dancing's second Work-Based Learning Program in dance production and design for High School students. Twelve students, ages 17 to 21, from Brooklyn Transition Center design and construct their own costumes, design the lights, stage manage and self-produce their live performances in which they also dance. Students completed immersive design and production workshops at their school led by our production team and engaged in a full week of on-site, real-world learning and job training at the theater. In partnership with the NYC Department of Education, Dance Arts Office. Please help us celebrate these young talents!
