From a tiny sheep in Marat’s arms to a soloist on professional stages — swipe to watch Maine Chernjavsky grow up. 🩰
Maine (pronounced My-Nay) began at MDSB as a young dancer performing in the Nutcracker, the way so many of our dancers do. Over the years we watched her rise — from Sheep, to Masha, all the way to the Sugar Plum Fairy — and the role of Tarantella was developed just for her. ➡️
From those first performances she went on to the Graduate Program at Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre, danced with Tulsa Ballet, and performed as a Soloist with Cincinnati Ballet — a Dance Magazine « 25 to Watch » who’s even appeared on screen in Amazon Prime’s Étoile.
Next week, she comes home. 💛

🗓 Tuesday, June 16 · 5–7PM

Every great career starts somewhere. For Maine, it started with MDSB.
