“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.
