Can you believe it’s been 20 years since the film Center Stage was released?! And to celebrate, several of the stars from the cult dance classic will reunite online to raise funds for American Ballet Theatre’s Crisis Relief Fund on 1 September.

Confirmed to take part are Sascha Radetsky (Charlie), Zoe Saldana (Eva), Amanda Schull (Jody) and Ethan Stiefel (Cooper). Radetsky is currently the Artistic Director of American Ballet Theatre’s Studio company and was a member of ABT, along with Stiefel, when they filmed Center Stage.

The 2000 film, directed by Nicholas Hytner, follows a group of ballet hopefuls at the fictional American Ballet Academy in New York.

The discussion will stream live on both the American Ballet Theatre and Sony Pictures Home Entertainment Youtube channels on 1 September at 7.30pm ET.
