Cincinnati's Opera company employed a number of dancers from around the nation last summer. Colorado Opera just completed a run of "Nixon in China" that employed several dancers to perform choreography by Sean Curran. There are many opportunities in the New York /New Jersey area that I just learned of as well. <BR/><BR/>I have heard a number of great things about Sallyann Mulcahy"s project as well.Brittany Fridenstine-Keefehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02469105629680292039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2608071484165407555.post-89598049229286382662008-06-22T23:03:00.000-04:002008-06-22T23:03:00.000-04:00A couple more summer opportunities for dancers to ...A couple more summer opportunities for dancers to consider. <BR><BR>I have had a number for friends from both Sacramento Ballet and Eugene Ballet spend the summers in Helena Montana both as dancers and choreographers for Sallyann Mulcahy's <A HREF="http://www.artisandance.com/" REL="nofollow">Artisan Dance</A> project.
