The Phoenix Theatre is ready to debut a new online festival that will showcase theatre as one universal language. Although our spoken word may be different, Origins Theatre Festival honors where artists all come from, their roots, igniting innovation. 

At 7 p.m. on Monday evening, March 2, with every seat in Jazz at Lincoln Center's Rose Theater occupied, almost 400 chorus members from 7 to 18 from the Young People's Chorus of New York City streamed on stage and filled the balcony boxes above. Joining them was the evening's host, Broadway star Norm Lewis, and in the pit YPC Artistic Director Francisco J. Nuñez gave the downbeat to The New York Pops to get YPC's gala evening off to an exciting start by singing...and dancing...'Magic To Do' from Pippin. Scroll down for photos from the concert!

Continuing a season marked by two major national awards and ongoing performances throughout the U.S., in Europe and Asia, the sold-out March 12 Young People's Chorus of New York City (YPC) Gala at Frederick P. Rose Hall, home of Jazz at Lincoln Center, has turned out to be the most successful in the chorus's history. Check out the photos from the gala below!

The Grand Opening of the New Dance Group studios will be celebrated on Friday, September 15th with a Ribbon Cutting Ceremony and Reception as well as free all-day dance classes for the public
