Culminating Performance of Born Dancing's Work-Based Learning Program

Twelve students from PS373K-Brooklyn Transition Center engaged in a series of immersive workshops, on-the-job training, and paid internship program by Born Dancing. The interns learned to design and construct their own costumes, create the lighting design, stage manage, and self-produce their live performance in which they also dance.

The interns will perform two dances. Born Dancing will additonally present two duets from our repertoire performed by Lisa Clementi, Domninique Lockett, Abby McBroom, and Jamie Petrone.

Followed by a Q & A and reception, included with ticket. We have limited seats available for this special performance.
