Eugene Ballet Academy’s partnership with the Eugene Ballet Company offers students extraordinary opportunities to perform with professional dancers, who serve as role models for the aspiring younger performers. The students learn about the level of skill required to be a professional dancer as well as the dedication and responsibility of performing with a company. They are exposed to the elements of costuming, makeup and hair, and the technicalities of backstage. The students find the performances on the Silva stage at the Hult Center to be thrilling. Academy students may audition for Nutcracker as well as other ballets in the repertoire of Eugene Ballet Company.
