Sacred Hearts dancers in Micki Kolberg’s dance classes will perform excerpts of “Paquita” at Mamiya Theatre on Apr. 9, beginning at 7 p.m.

“Paquita” is the story of a young Spanish girl raised by gypsies who saved her from a pirate massacre. Through unexpected events, Paquita meets a high-ranked soldier, Lucien. Complications arise because Paquita believes she is not worthy of Lucien.   

Dancer junior Adrianne Del Rosario said, “I look forward to the performance because we’ll finally be able to show off our hard work. We’ve been preparing during classes and sometimes after school.”

The spring ballet will be presented for one day only. While tickets are free, seats must be reserved.
