In addition to providing students with the best quality of dance educa- tion, we also give students the oppor- tunity to network with the nation’s top Artistic Directors, choreographers, and schools of dance. Many of our dancers have gone on to dance for profession- al companies such as American Ballet Theatre, Opéra National de Bordeaux, Louisville Ballet, and more. Other dancers have gone on to star in tele- vision series on Nickelodeon and The Disney Channel. This year, our Summer Intensive Work- shop and Performance provided a thorough and rewarding dance expe- rience for students seeking a profes- sional career in dance, giving them the opportunity to work with master guest Artistic Directors from top conservato- ries and companies around the coun- try. We also hosted our annual College Dance Fair, assisting rising junior and senior high school students and their parents navigate college dance pro- grams by meeting with representa- tives from participating schools such as NYU-Tisch, The Ailey School at Ford- ham University, and The American Mu- sical and Dramatic Academy, amongst many others.

  • NEWS from the JEROME ROBBINS FOUNDATION VOL. 6, NO. 3 (2019) in the Company of Harold Prince at the New York Public Library for the Performing Arts
    NEWS FROM THE JEROME ROBBINS FOUNDATION VOL. 6, NO. 3 (2019) In the Company of Harold Prince at the New York Public Library for the Performing Arts Donald and Mary Oenslager Gallery Through March 31, 2020 Few people did more to define the American musical today than Harold “Hal” Prince. His resume included some of the most important titles of the past cen- tury: West Side Story, Fiddler on the Roof, Cabaret, Company, Sweeney Todd, and Phantom of the Opera. In the new free exhibition In the Company of Harold Prince: Broadway Producer, Director, Collaborator, The New York Public Library for the Performing Arts explores Prince’s creative trajectory, and showcases the team of designers, stage managers, press agents, composers, and writers he assembled to create so many history-making shows. Curated by Doug Reside, the Lewis B. and Dorothy Cullman Curator of the Library’s Billy Rose Theatre Division, the exhibition displays original costumes, set models, and archival video, and borrows from the aesthetic of immersive theatre, inviting visitors to pick up, examine and interact with reproductions of documents and objects from the Library’s unparalleled collections. Facsimiles of the paperwork for The Pajama Game and Damn Yankees are scattered over a recreation of Prince’s desk for visitors to look through. Digital recreations of stage manager Ruth Mitchell’s scripts are linked to thousands of never-before-seen photographs from the Library’s collections. The exhibition ends with an open cabaret stage, allowing visitors to perform songs from his shows or record their own stories about their experience with Prince’s theatrical work.

  • Review: Taylor Stanley Rises in City Ballet's 'Hallelujah Junction'
    Review: Taylor Stanley Rises in City Ballet’s ‘Hallelujah Junction’ By GIA KOURLAS MAY 18, 2016 Taylor Stanley of New York City Ballet dancing “Hallelujah Junction.” CreditPaul Kolnik Peter Martins, the ballet master in chief of New York City Ballet, loves to give his dancers happy surprises. On Tuesday evening, moments before the curtain rose on “Hallelujah Junction,” Mr. Martins’s brisk, galvanic work set to John Adams, he promoted Taylor Stanley, one of its leads, to principal dancer. Filling in at the last minute for an injured Gonzalo Garcia, Mr. Stanley was making his New York debut in the role, at the David H. Koch Theater. Mr. Martins’s decision was spontaneous, a City Ballet publicist said. But it makes sense: The debonair Mr. Stanley has an affinity for speed and drama and has been frequently featured in the ballets of Justin Peck, the company’s resident choreographer. His sharp attack was apparent in “Hallelujah”; later that night, in “Western Symphony,” George Balanchine’s 1954 homage to the Wild West, he showed some spunk, loosening up to find the cowboy within. In that ballet, which remains a delight, Brittany Pollack made her debut in the second movement opposite Jared Angle, gamely leaping headfirst into his arms with little fear and an ever-gleaming smile. (Her perpetually happy expression can seem one-note.) In the final movement, the willowy Teresa Reichlen, though she faltered uncharacteristically in her fouetté turns, and a devilish Andrew Veyette imbued their frisky pas de deux with a spirit that showed they weren’t just executing moves, but reacting to each other.
