Ballet Yuma’s THE SEASONS AND OTHER WORKS was a year in the making. Postponed from last year, dancers made their appearance on the football field of Yuma Catholic High School on Saturday, April 17, 1 pm. It was 90 degrees and sunny. “Thank you to our patrons, artistic directors, volunteers, dancers, staff and Yuma Catholic,” wrote director Kathleen Sinclair.
Forty-two dancers performed in total — 15 from the Ballet Yuma company, 9 from the Intermediate company, and 18 student from Ballet Yuma Academy. Each season in The Seasons was choreographed by a different choreographer:
- Spring, Kathleen Sinclair, Ballet Yuma Director
- Summer, Alyssa Myers (Ballet Yuma alum)
- Fall, Emma M.K. Con, Ballet Yuma Academy Associate Director
- Winter, Jon Cristofori, Ballet Yuma Director
