Opus Performing Arts is proud to present our annual “Spring Showcase” at 7:00pm on June 11 and 2:00pm on June 12, 2022. Audiences are sure to enjoy this school performance, featuring Opus students in ballet, tap, contemporary, jazz & lyrical. Opus’ Spring Showcase highlights the instructional aspect of the school from our youngest students of three years old to our intermediate/advanced high school students.
This year, the performance will include an excerpt of the romantic ballet, “La Sylphide,” originally choreographed in 1832, it is one of the world’s oldest ballets. “La Sylphide” will feature two graduating advanced students, Bailey Kager playing the role of the Sylph and Tyler Nelson as James. In addition, Opus’ Spring Showcase includes new works by artistic director Brooke Evans and faculty members Damian Cade, Celeste Hartsook, Gabby Malagreca, Elizabeth Malone and Diane Williams.
