“Stars of Today Meet the Stars of Tomorrow: Best of 25 Years” Gala

SEE THE FUTURE OF DANCE TODAY at this spectacular evening of dance, featuring some of the most loved pieces from YAG’s 25 years of electrifying shows.

“Stars of Today Meet the Stars of Tomorrow” is an annually sold-out, spectacular Gala performance featuring the top winners of the YAGP international student ballet competition and guest stars from the world’s leading dance companies.

Another World Premiere will be choreographed by Mexican choreographer Julieta Martínez, featuring dancers from the graduating classes of the world’s 4 leading dance academies: Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis School of American Ballet Theatre (USA), Princess Grace Academy (Monaco), John Cranko School of Stuttgart Ballet (Germany), and Zurich Dance Academy (Switzerland).
