Originally from New Jersey, Lindsey Casale began her pre-professional ballet training at the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis School at American Ballet Theatre, under the direction of Franco de Vita and Cynthia Harvey. Lindsey continued her training at Ballet Academy East under the direction of Darla Hoover. She had the privilege of dancing various soloist roles in their productions, two of her favorites being George Balanchine’s Valse Fantaisie, staged by Darla Hoover, and the Bluebird Pas de Deux, staged by Maina Gielgud. Lindsey spent her summers training at American Ballet Theatre, The Washington Ballet, The Royal Danish Ballet in Copenhagen, where she was awarded the Birger Bartholin Scholarship, and most recently at Orsolina28 with Juliano Nunes.

Upon graduation, Lindsey spent a year in Chicago as a trainee with The Joffrey Ballet, and the following year, she was offered a studio company contract with Ballet Arizona, where she performed in various productions with the main company, such as George Balanchine’s Bourree Fantasque, as well as productions with the school. This past year, Lindsey spent a season performing with Ballet RI. She has performed with various companies in NYC and is currently a company member with Brooklyn Ballet.

She is very excited to be joining AVID for their performances of Confetti in the Arpino Dance Festival at The Joyce!
