Three intensives. Three weeks of dancing. One final performance.
Tomorrow, we celebrate the culmination of an incredible summer of Dancing Under the Big Sky at the Sweet Pea Festival of the Arts!
From two weeks with our DUBS Junior dancers, to three weeks of our full DUBS Intensive, to this week’s Adult Intensive, our studios have been filled with dancers of different ages and stages learning, growing, creating, and sharing their love of dance.
Alongside MBC faculty, our dancers had the opportunity to learn from guest teachers Carla Stallings, David Ingram, and Isabella LaFreniere, as well as community partners including APRS Physical Therapy and Pursuit Dietetics. Their days have included ballet, contemporary, character, swing dance, variations, conditioning, injury prevention, nutrition, and so much more.
And tomorrow, they take it all to the stage!
The performance will include a very special sneak peek at Beneath, a new work by David Ingram that will have its world premiere on Montana Ballet Company this season as part of Montana Mix Vol. 1.
Set to Eric Funk’s evocative Trees, Op. 139, Beneath is a meditation on connection, inspired by the hidden architecture of the forest and the unseen relationships that sustain every community, every family, and every life. Our intensive students had the tremendous opportunity to step inside the creative process this summer, working with Mr. Ingram as they explored this new work, and we’re thrilled to share a glimpse of it with you tomorrow.
Come celebrate a summer of dance with us!
