Marblehead School of Ballet to Present Free Performance of Summer Dance Intensive 2016 Workshop
PRESS RELEASE
(Marblehead, Massachusetts; July 26, 2016) – The Marblehead School of Ballet (MSB) invites the public to attend and enjoy the 2016 Summer Dance Intensive Workshop Performance on Saturday, August 6 at 1:30 p.m. at 115 Pleasant Street in Marblehead, Massachusetts. The program is free. A donation may be made to The Ruth N. Shiff Memorial Fund or the North Shore Civic Ballet Company (NSCB), a nonprofit, tax-exempt organization headquartered at the school.
The performance features students enrolled in the MSB's 2016 Summer Dance Intensive and selected pieces from the NSCB's repertoire. A range of repertory will be presented from classical ballet, modern, and jazz with some original choreography from the NSCB's resident choreographer, Ivan Korn.
"The performance culminates the Summer Dance Intensive 2016 program and various technique classes. The dancers will perform the choreography they learned in the intensive third week of repertory focusing on technique, choreography, and rehearsals, ending with the production of the work. This is a big challenge for these aspiring dancers and also an opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned in the program," said Director Paula K. Shiff, recipient of Salem State University's 2009 Lifetime Achievement Award in the Arts, who trained at the Boston Ballet and in New York and performed with the Boston Ballet Company.
The Marblehead School of Ballet's 2016 Summer Dance Intensive program was sponsored in part by The Ruth N. Shiff Memorial Fund. For further information about the MSB, the NSCB, The Ruth N. Shiff Memorial Fund or the performance, call 781-631-6262 or send an e-mail to msb@havetodance.com.
