Young Dancemakers presents free concerts across Manhattan, from July 19 through Aug. 3.
The company of 18 exuberant, ethnically diverse high school dancers and choreographers celebrates its 18th anniversary with a performance of original works, under the direction of Alice Teirstein.
Acclaimed choreographer Doug Elkins will teach one of his dances, and all performances end with the lively and popular “Dance With Us,” inviting audience members on stage for some exhilarating post-concert improvisation.
