BPG mixes it up with eclectic "Move" show

Strong Auditorium was filled nearly to capacity this past Friday as students and parents flocked to see Ballet Performance Group's spring showcase, entitled "Move."What is immediately obvious watching BPG is that the emphasis is on the performance, not just the ballet.
