This week we place the spotlight on Company Dancer Molly Wagner, who has just finished her first season with Kansas City Ballet.
Molly is originally from Denver, Colorado, where she began her ballet training. She spent summers with Jillana, Joffrey Ballet South, Kansas City Ballet and Ballet Austin. She graduated cum laude from the University of Missouri-Kansas City with a B.F.A, and went on to dance professionally with Missouri Contemporary Ballet, Montgomery Ballet, and Charleston Ballet Theatre, and now here at Kansas City Ballet.
Check out the video below to hear Molly tell us about how she began ballet and why she loves to dance. You can also read an article written by Molly herself in Dance Magazine.
