PBT Dance Placement Auditions + Recycle, Donate and Swap Dance Clothes

Students who would like to be considered for acceptance into the Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre (PBT) Bridge Ballet 1 class at Hope Academy should attend this placement audition. Students who were selected to participate in the Bridge Ballet 1 class during the Spring 2014 term do not need to attend this audition (they are invited to register for the class).

For all other PBT classes at Hope Academy, students should register for the level that corresponds to their age as of Sept 1. If you feel that your child should be in a different class for some reason, please attend this placement session.PBT instructors will assess the students and may re-assigned them to  different levels, if appropriate.

RECYCLE, DONATE & SWAP FOR GENTLY USED DANCE CLOTHING & SHOES – 11 am

Alyssa Melby Herzog, the Director of Education and Community Engagement from Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre, organized a collection there in order to provide dance clothing and shoes for our students who might not otherwise be able to afford them. We will have dance clothing and shoes in a wide range of sizes available in the Harambe room at the entrance of East Liberty Presbyterian Church. Please come, with your child, to try on shoes and find appropriate leotards and tights. We will be accepting cash donations (pay what you can) that will be used to purchase additional shoes and clothing.

Additionally, if you have any dance clothes or shoes that your child has outgrown, please bring them to contribute so that another child can put them to good use.

on Saturday, September 6 at 10 am.
