TILLI Winter Session: Meet Laura Young, Charter Member and Principal Dancer at the Boston Ballet

As a charter member of Boston Ballet and its predecessor New England Civic Ballet, Laura Young was one of the longest-serving female principal dancers at Boston Ballet. She started dancing with the Company in 1960 and retired from the stage in 1989. She toured throughout Europe and Asia with Boston Ballet, and partnered with ballet luminaries like Rudolf Nureyev and Fernando Bujones. While still dancing, and for the next 30 years, she served in many capacities for both the Company and the School, in her favorite role as a teacher. Young retired after nearly six decades with Boston Ballet in 2019.
