Looking back at such a great weekend Onstage New York This was our first event with all MCPA pre-professional levels and all repertoire from this season. What a great weekend! So glad we were able to present on the Onstage stage. So many notable things about that weekend….our youngest dancers first stage and they presented like pros, our oldest dancers showing great leadership by their many examples of how to prepare and present on every stage, and the growth within all levels and across all genres was undeniable. We celebrate every dancer and their evident successes of the season. Thank you to all of the MCPA teachers and choreographers that contribute and pour in countless time to our school and its dancers; nurturing some of the most incredible young artists. So many recognitions for our school including highest scoring, critics choice, versatility, technique, and more. We could not be more proud and excited to see every dancer shine on the stage once more this upcoming weekend:)

Thank you ADC/IBC Pittsburgh for a short but fun weekend of scholarship class, friends and stage. We attended this event with prepared classical variations for stage coached beautifully by Mrs.Ninel and Mr.Dima and we had a visit by Mrs. Maeghan livening things up. Memories made both on the stage and off …oh, and also dodging major snow storms:)
Again the dancers so professional in their preparation for stage. Let’s keep that going.
Many scholarships awarded to our students-
Students placing in top 25.
Thank you ADC/IBC
