Holly Curran is a performer, choreographer and artist living bicoastally between New York City and Southern Oregon. A native of New Jersey, she trained and graduated from the Rock School for Dance Education. She has danced professionally with the Metropolitan Opera Ballet at Lincoln Center, Ballet Austin, Terra Firma Dance Theater, Claudia Schreier and Co, New Chamber Ballet and the Lyric Opera of Chicago amongst others. The time away from the stage during the pandemic allowed for Holly to cultivate her choreographic voice. Her choreography has been presented and awarded at YAGP and the Youth IBC, as well as in local commissions. Additionally Holly is a returning guest choreographer for the Lake Tahoe Dance Collective.

Simultaneous with her dancing career, Holly studied American History at Columbia University, where she was a member of the Columbia Ballet Collaborative. She graduated Cum Laude in 2018. She is thrilled to return to her Alma Mater to create a new work for CBC.
