FIGMENTS YOUTH DANCE ENSEMBLE

Founded in 1993 by Heidi Klecak, Figments Youth Dance Ensemble began as a drama program of the Hartford Children's Theatre. In its first season, the nine members produced a concert that included nine original pieces. Since then, the company has become an independent entity, with membership increasing yearly. The company supports itself in small part through student tuition and ticket sales. Primary funding is raised through an annual "Fund A Dance" Benefit, held each October. All donations are tax deductible.
