ABOUT THE CHOREOGRAPHER

Tiffany Mangulabnan is a trailblazing force in the dance world, and her contributions to the art form are nothing short of extraordinary. Born and raised in Manila, Philippines, Tiffany's journey began with the Philippine Ballet Theatre at the age of 20, where she quickly rose to prominence as a principal dancer.

Upon relocating to New York City in 2012, Tiffany's career reached new heights as she danced with BalletNext under the guidance of former American Ballet Theatre and New York City Ballet principal dancers Michele Wiles and Charles Askegard. In addition, her freelance career has been a testament to her versatility, performing with prestigious companies like The Metropolitan Opera and various contemporary and modern ballet ensembles, including Gabrielle Lamb’s Pigeonwing Dance and Gleich Dances.

Tiffany's choreography, rooted in classical ballet technique, stands out for its emphasis on fluid, large, and gooey movements and meticulous attention to detail. Her work has been showcased at esteemed venues and festivals nationwide, earning praise for its unique and captivating qualities.

We are honored to have her as our guest choreographer and look forward to sharing her inspiring work with you.
