Bravura Dance Gala Program 2025 by Corpus Christi College

WELCOME TO THE 2025 BRAVURA DANCE GALA PROGRAM

Bravura is a celebration of boldness, confidence, and artistic courage - qualities that shine in every dancer taking the stage tonight.

This year, we are especially excited to welcome our Junior School students to the Gala for the very first time. Their debut performance is a joyful reminder of how early the love of dance begins.

The Gala features three unique nights that reflect the full spectrum of our dance program. Students present their own choreographic works, developed as part of their assessment, showcasing their creativity and personal voice. You will also see class dances designed to build technique, musicality, and performance skill. And finally, our co-curricular groups highlight the dedication and passion of those who extend their dance training beyond the classroom.

Tonight’s program is a tapestry of energy, artistry, and growth. We invite you to experience the spirit of Bravura in every step, turn, and leap.
