Jube School is thrilled to be partnering with Broadway Across Canada to present a special Q&A session with Riverdance lead dancer, Olivia Nachtigal!
This unique session offers an exclusive opportunity to hear directly from a professional Riverdance performer about life on tour—and the journey it took to get there. From first dance classes to taking the stage around the world, you'll get a behind-the-scenes look at what it really takes to become part of the Riverdance story.
Students are invited to ask anything—whether it's about learning the steps, performing on tour, the career pathway of a professional dancer, or the cultural roots and history of Riverdance.
This session is part of Jube School’s commitment to bringing students closer to the performing arts, offering a rare chance to connect with a professional dancer and hear their story firsthand.
Recommended grades: Open to all grades
