This is a subject that has always interested me from my own personal experiences with ballet and my general interests in the art altogether. I decided to write this arts issue for my gold arts award as its something that has always been such an issue within the world of ballet and dance itself as an art form overall and I felt so passionate about it and wanted to share this with others to see what they thought.

Does the performing arts have to break the bank?
As someone who's only form of training being from a high school, I feel passionate about the fact that making it in the business shouldn't be about how much money you have. Money doesn't equal talent but to pay for higher education it doesn't matter ho talented you are if you don't have the money to pay for it, you are not getting in. I feel passionate about getting underprivileged kids into the performing arts, but what's the point if they can afford to take their talent into a career.
