The Wand of Youth



An exuberant series of dances set to Edward Elgar's, "The Wand of Youth", Suite Number 2, this ballet shows the range of the dancers in marches, demi-character dances, and a fast-paced finale. A ballet designed to show the youthfulness and spirit of the C.V.Y.B., it is a lovely addition to the 2005-2006 Season!

Choreographed by Karen Gabay!
