New Year, New Classes, New Performances!

Our All- Youth production of The Nutcracker, performed by Scripps Ballet Theatre and dancers from the Academy was a wonderful success and was enjoyed by over 2,000 audience members this past season!

In true Scripps Performing Arts Academy fashion, where we recognize the value and importance of performance in any young thespians life, we're moving right from the Nutcracker into our Spring season.  This year that includes our 6th annual American Girl Fashion Show, the Scripps Ballet Theatre's 3rd annual Ballet in the Box performances, School House Rock Live, Jr., Creativity en Tap, our 1st annual Tap AND Jazz show, and our original All-School performance of Thumbelina!

And January marked the beginning of our fantastic partnership with [the] movement initiative, bringing Adult Fitness Classes to our Torrey Hills studios!

Earthkalah Opens This Week!

Princess Golah and the
Evil Sorcerer Greedious, in rehearsal

This year's All School Production will open this weekend, Friday at 6:30, Saturday and Sunday at 4pm in the Vincent Paul Black Box Theatre.

Earthkalah is a contemporary fairy tale, inspired by a trip Miss Angela took to the desert with Shirley MacLaine. Written by Executive Director Angela Amoroso, the narrated contemporary ballet illuminates the vision that together, we may have the courage to live our lives to the fullest and to contribute to humanity with a sense of selfless joy rather than selfish destruction.

Earthkalah has been performed several times since it's 1988 premiere and has become an audience favorite and a Scripps Performing Arts Staple! As a narrated ballet whose characters include bunnies, birds, flowers, mermaids and fisher boys, it's great for small children!

Earthkalah will be presented with Les Rendez-vous, a one act ballet about friends gathering in a park, performed by the Scripps Ballet Theatre.

This cast features dancers aged 3-19 years old and we hope to see you there!
