Highlighting some of the wonderful choreography from our 2023 Summer Season. That year included many amazing works, such as:
Adulting by alumni choreographer Tiana Ayala (2018/2019) with music composed by Anna Young.
A Tribute Dance by YDC alum Noele Philips (1997/1998), with music by Woolkid and featuring Jennifer Connelly.
Clue by Alyssa Martin, a 1950s murder mystery with a twist with music composed by Clifton Anderson.

Her spirit lives on in every dancer who steps into the work.
Thank you, Alice. We love and remember you always.
