Meet our Auroras 🌹✨

Both dancers are members of our Adagio Tier, and it has been an immense pleasure watching these young pre-professionals step into the challenging — and iconic — role of Princess Aurora.

Come see two interpretations of one classic fairytale in The Sleeping Beauty — Aurora’s Wedding:

We are hnored to share that the Viewers Like Me campaign we helped develop for Cascade PBS has been nominated for a Northwest Emmy® Award 🎉

This project explored themes that resonate deeply with us: access to the arts, the challenges of an artistic life, and representation through dance, including boys in ballet.

Cascade PBS partnered with Adage Ballet Academy and choreographer Guillaume Basso to help develop the choreographic sequences for the animated dancer. We were proud to serve as a ballet reference for the project, and grateful for the care the team took in researching ballet training so it could be portrayed with authenticity.

We’re also happy to share sketches by lead animator Lucas Marchi , created live while observing classes at Adage. It was such a cool experience for our dancers to be captured in this way!

Congratulations to the whole creative team on this beautiful recognition.

IT’S OFFICIAL 💙✨
