We had an INCREDIBLE time at @ndeodance’s 2026 National Conference! 🤩 We loved connecting (and reconnecting!) with dance educators from across the country—some we only see once a year during the conference. 🎥 Enjoy these BTS from our time together! #DanceTeachers #NDEOConference #DanceEducation #DanceEducators [Media Description: A 12-second reel featuring DEL staff and facilitators at NDEO’s 2026 Conference. They are featured waving to the camera while running the booth and various workshops. Intermixed is footage of participants in the midst of working as well as poster boards and other materials.]

Today marks 40 years of Phantom of the Opera. ✨️ I have had the huge privilege to be apart of 7 of those years (on/off). And wow how it has changed my life in so many ways. To be apart of something so colossal, legendary, and magnificent is my greatest honour. Thank you to everyone i have ever shared the stage, backstage, front stage with, all the creatives and the artistic teams. Thank you, i am very grateful ❤️

Happy 40th Birthday, Phantom of the Opera! So many years in the show, and I still can’t get enough of it! I owe so much to Phantom, and I will never get tired of how grateful I am to be a small part of this legacy. It truly is a gift that keeps on giving, and I don’t take a day in the show for granted! Today, I’ll get to perform in Phantom and celebrate the incredible milestone of 40 years of this iconic and timeless show. The best part? I get to do it with my fiancé, @curtolds, and so many friends I’ve shared the stage with for years, including my sister Drizella, @kfirmusic (pictured with me in the company bow nearly 10 years ago!), and my love Joelle Gates, who first taught me the show in New York. Today is dedicated to Phantom and to all that the show has bestowed upon us—the cast, crew, producers, musicians, fans, and everyone else—who have brought this story to life 8 x week over the past 40 years! 👻 🌹 🎭 🩰 🎶 @phantomoftheopera @phantomopera @gwbentertainment
