Young Choreographers in Concert
April 4-5, 2025
Senior dance students will be showcasing their choreography skills in the Charter Arts Dance Department’s Young Choreographers in Concert taking place April 4 & 5, 2025.
This annual concert is the culminating event, or final exam, for the Senior Dance Composition course. Each senior student creates original choreography that is cohesively inspired by a theme of their choosing and sets their work on their peers. This year’s performance features twenty choreographers and more than 70 dancers.
This year, the students’ choreography features a wide range of themes including how the media that we consume affects our mood, how a cancer diagnosis can affect a family dynamic and how one finds joy despite a stressful situation.
Concert co-director, Amy Berry says, “Young Choreographers in Concert provides students with an extraordinary opportunity to explore and cultivate their creative potential. Throughout this artistic journey, students have the chance to immerse themselves in the full choreographic process from the initial spark of an idea to the final performance on stage. This journey allows choreographers to express their emotions while the dancers showcase their authentic talent and bring the thematic vision to life.’
Evening performances April 4 & 5 at 7 PM, matinee performance April 5 at 2 PM. Tickets are $7-$12. CLICK HERE FOR TICKETS
