As we prepare for our 2025-2026 Fall season, we would like to proudly exclaim
“Way To Go Mackenzie!!!”
Mackenzie is a senior this season.
This past summer she attended the college auditions offered at NYCDA. A big Thank You to for offering the audition opportunity to so many talented college bound dancers.
A big congratulations to Mackenzie, whom from that audition was awarded a $25,000 scholarship from Dean College. Mackenzie has only improved over the summer and we are so excited to see how far this season with MCPA can take her. Looking forward to an amazing Senior year for you Mackenzie.

What a week at NYCDA Finals! So many amazing opportunities for the students. Thank you . Dancers attending Wicked, Gypsy, Rockette, you name it mock auditions with actual performers from these Broadway shows ….coming out inspired with a real idea of what is possible. MCPA dancers who have a real goal of becoming a Rockette in their future attending class/audition. Dancer selected as top 5 by casting to re-audition for the role of Clara in the Rockette winter spectacular. Dancers in class with the actual Desmond Richardson, David Parsons, Stella Abrera…. the list goes on and on. (We will be having a history lesson when we get back for our youngest dancers so they grasp just how fortunate they were.) I had two directors approach me, one amazed at the level of classical and contemporary, jazz, tap, etc. found under one roof at our school reminding me of just how rare our program is. The other director, let me just say, I needed to hear what you were sending my way and I appreciate more than you know the confirmation that we are doing things right by all of our dancers. Thank you!!!
Dancers taking the stage and class room with others from all over the US and abroad. What an amazing week full of such memorable moments that I hope students keep with them as a building block to making their dreams actual reality. Congratulations to all of the MCPA dancers that participated! And to the parents who survived with a smile on this marathon of a finals!!! Way to go MCPA!
