Junior Ballerina Night & NYCB Children's Workshop on the Lawn

"Junior Ballerina Night" is a perfect way for young dancers to experience ballet.  Kids are invited to wear their dance outfits, dance with our ballet barres before the show and then watch a performance of world-class ballet.  

Children's Workshop on the Lawn
7:15-7:45

Tonight's activities will be followed by Daniel Ulbricht leading a 30-minute Children's Workshop that will help young people understand the connection between movement and storytelling. The Children's Workshops are a popular pre-performance program that NYCB offers during its regular season at Lincoln Center.   

Junior Ballerina Night activities as well as the Children's Workshop, will take place on the 'apron' - the concrete walkway located between the lawn and SPAC's Amphitheatre.

Pre-Performance Talk 7 PM

Magical, Beautiful, and Dangerous Worlds
Deborah Jowitt, dance critic and scholar; author of Jerome Robbins, His Life, His Theater, His Dance
