Educational Outreach

Artistic Director Lindsay Gumaskas wishes to continue the tradition of Outreach performances for local schools. It is her hope to have a new Outreach program for the 2025-2026 season to present in the fall of 2025. Her vision is to include many different genres of dance, such as Ballet, Jazz, Tap, Contemporary and much more. Since Eugene Ballet Company has ceased their touring of “The Nutcracker,” Ms. Gumaskas wishes to start a new holiday tradition on the southern Oregon Coast. With the help of different choreographers and artists from the South Coast, Ms. Gumaskas hopes to have a program that celebrates the holiday season with familiar holiday favorites and some newly-imagined ones. This program is still in the early stages of planning and finding grants to help with the costs of choreography, costuming, staging, props, and other costs. Once this program has been “greenlit,” DUSCO will hold auditions for different pieces and roles for this production.
