Vote For Your Favorite Ballet Dancers!

January 20, 2013

Youth America Grand Prix has big news: They’re currently working on an exciting new documentary, Ballet’s Greatest Hits—and you can be part of it!

But first a little background. Earlier this year, YAGP held a “Ballet’s Greatest Hits” gala that boasted performances from some of ballet’s top dancers and was filmed by Emmy-winning Clemente D’Alessio.Now, they’ll be using the footage, along with dancer interviews, to create a documentary-style flick.

Here’s where you come in. They’re asking you to vote for your Top Three favorite (current) dancers in the following roles:

  • Basilio and Kitri (Don Quixote)
  • The couples who perform the Flames of Paris pas de deux
  • Myrtha, Prince and Giselle (Giselle)
  • Gamzatti, Nikia, Solor, and Bronze Idol (La Bayadere)
  • Sugar Plum Fairy and the Nutcracker Prince (The Nutcracker)
  • Odette/Odile and Siegfried (Swan Lake)

And they’ll interview the winners for the flick!

There are a few ways you can vote:

1. Post your vote on YAGP’s Facebook page

2. Tweet your vote to @YAGPtweets with #yagpbgh

I know this is all a bit confusing, but when it comes together it’s going to be awesome! For the full scoop, click here.
