Greetings!

As we look forward to the much anticipated PDT Spring Show on June 6th at the Performing Arts Center at the West Windsor Plainsboro High School South and the Summer Intensive soon after, we would like to take a moment to thank all of our dedicated students, their families, and our instructors for a terrific year.   The students are dancing better than ever in all classes., and we are enormously proud of what we see every time we teach or walk by a studio window. We can't wait to show everyone how your hard work has paid off in our Spring Show.

Other news below highlight upcoming performances by PDT instructors Meagan Woods and Marie Alonzo Snyder; a new summer camp for acting with Jody Wood Actors Studio; and an informational meeting, "Ballet Training at PDT" on Saturday May 22nd at 10:30 at the Food Court located next door to PDT.

We look forward to seeing you at the show!

Warmly,
Risa Kaplowitz & Susan Jaffe

We know that you have many options when it comes to dance and theater training, and we are grateful that you have chosen to study at 116 Rockingham Row. We'd like to share what good ballet training entails with families who may not be as familiar about this art form, and give anyone interested an understanding of PDT's ballet curriculum.

PDT SPRING PERFORMANCE

PDT's much anticipated Spring Performance is fast approaching.  On Sunday June 6th at 3PM, join us at West Windsor Plainsboro High School South on Clarksville Road for spectacular ballet (including Sleeping Beauty variations staged by Susan Jaffe), jazz, tap, hip hop, modern, salsa, and ballroom. Unlike many recitals that go on for hours, PDT maintains that a recital should be enjoyable for everyone. Our end-of-season performance shows the audience just enough to allow our students to shine. This is one recital you wish were longer! General admission. Tickets $10 per person. Call 609-514-1600 for more information.
