The dancers perform both classical and contemporary works by local and nationally acknowledged professional artists.

IN CONCERT Spring showcase offers a challenging amalgamation of Contemporary and Classical pieces. Each year, the dancers perform an adaptation of one of the great classics, such as Swan Lake, Giselle, or La Bayadere… a challenge indeed and a delight for dancers and audiences alike. The dancers also perform exciting Contemporary pieces by local and national artists.

YOUTH PERFORMANCE CLASSES 

Our dancers performance careers start with Youth Performance Classes.

Dancers may be selected at the age of 9 around the grade 3 level of dance and can progress through the levels until they are technically ready for a full Coastal Dance Theatre (CDTS) company membership.
Youth Performance class dancers participate in the CDTS holiday productions like The Nutcracker, Alice in Winterland, and The Snow Queen. They also perform in the CDTS Spring Season In Concert series doing ballet and contemporary pieces .
Youth Performance class dancers may also prepare our touring show Peter and the Wolf for an elementary school tour in the Spring.
