Join us for a wide ranging chat with Racheal Nye, Director of the Yvonne Chouteau School and Studio Company at Oklahoma City Ballet. Ms. Nye covers everything you wanted to know about their trainee program and second company, including how they recruit, what they look for and what the path into the main company looks like. Ms. Nye also talks about the importance of not only high achievement, but also "high empathy," recognizing that the latter is sometimes in short supply at rigorous training programs. Tune in to hear more about her plans for evolving the school in the future and how students can join the program!
