A Shining Season Of Emerging Artistic Talent
Queensland Ballet Academy
Audiences will be swept away by challenging and diverse choreographic works as Queensland Ballet Academy’s annual Aspire returns for another shining season of emerging talent.
A showcase of the Pre-Professional Program dancers’ artistic depth and technical flair, Aspire celebrates the talent and aptitude of these young dancers on the brink of entering into the profession of dance.
Showgoers will be captivated by diverse and emotive works in classical and neo-classical styles, while the dancers are challenged with performing both ensemble and soloist roles.
Queensland Ballet Academy’s Pre-Professional Program serves as a finishing year for those pursuing a professional career as a dancer. The full-time program provides students with the preparation and training they require before joining a professional company, developing their skills to the highest artistic and technical standards.
Queensland Ballet Academy Director Christian Tátchev described Aspire as a program not to be missed.
“I encourage people to witness the drive and creativity of these aspiring dancers in this very special season,” he said.
Aspire ’22 runs from 18 – 21 May 2022 at the Queensland Ballet Academy.
