Pacific Northwest Ballet’s NEXT STEP is a one-night-only performance for PNBS Professional Division students in an all-premiere line up created by PNB Company members. One of the most fun performances all season long, NEXT STEP is your chance to cheer the next generation of dancers and dance-makers.
Prior to 2011 the program was known as Choreographer’s Showcase. In 2011, it was renamed Next Step.
