Seattle students perform with Pacific Northwest Ballet at McCaw Hall
Nearly 300 Seattle Public Schools students will perform on stage at Marion Oliver McCaw Hall on Saturday, March 23 as part of the Discover Dance program led by Pacific Northwest Ballet (PNB).
The performance is a culmination of partnerships with three Seattle schools: Daniel Bagley and Graham Hill elementary schools, and Pinehurst K-8; and one Bellevue school: Eastgate Elementary.
Ten 3rd- through 8th-grade classrooms from these schools worked with their teachers and PNB teaching artists to create and perform original dances that connect to concepts from their curriculum.
Also featured in the performance are the Graham Hill Elementary Chorus, REACH Student Dance Group, and PNB Company dancers.
