Katie Alexander broke her right ankle as she came down from a leap in the friday night dress rehersal. In the program below Katie shows in many of the early dress rehearsal pictures on friday night. After her injury she was quickly iced and moved to the hospital. At that point and before the next night's performance the cast completely re-staged three of the pieces she was in for one less dancer. In two pieces Donna Frogge stepped in as a dancer. The performance was dedicated to Katie and she was on stage with crutches and an ankle brace for the end-of-program bows, receiving a bouqet of flowers (see top right picture above). She had worked a year training for this performance.
