We have closed our doors as of August, 2024.

We value the contributions of every student, instructor, choreographer, board member, sponsor, music director, theater crew member, designer, musician, scenic artist, technical director, administrator, lighting designer, composer, photographer, costumer, graphic designer, patron, volunteer and family who contributed to the community we built together over all these years: 40 years of professional caliber performances and almost 50 years of pre-professional training.

In the words of our beloved colleague and icon of dance, Sara Wilbourne: Onward!

We wish the best for the future of the classical arts in Santa Cruz
