    Odyssey Dance Theatre’s studio company Odyssey II presents its final 2007-2008 season performance, The Journey.

    In an ongoing effort to nurture emerging artists, Junior Company Odyssey II offers a full-scholarship, pre-professional training program, which gives young dancers the opportunity to spend a year training intensively and performing with the company. Twelve dancers, ages 14 to 18, receive full scholarships for one year to train extensively in ballet; jazz; tap; funk; and acting. They perform with the company during its Kingsbury Hall seasons and have their own performances in May each year. This rigorous program is directed by Emmy-winning Choreographer (“High School Musical”) and Odyssey Dance Theatre Associate Artistic Director Bonnie Story, and rehearsal space is hosted by Treehouse Athletic Club. “This is such a wonderful opportunity for the kids,” says Story. “They get excellent training and the chance to be onstage with the professional dancers. And some are even offered contracts with Odyssey Dance Theatre the next season!

    Auditions for Odyssey II 2008-2009 season will be held on Saturday, August 9 from 4:00pm to 10:00pm at the Treehouse Athletic Club in Draper.

    Odyssey Dance Theatre is funded, in part, by Zoo, Arts & Parks. Best of State in Dance 2006, 2007 and 2008 and Best of State in Arts and Entertainment 2007, Odyssey Dance Theatre performs to critical acclaim and standing ovations at home and on tour, nationally and internationally.
