Abigail joined Ballet 314 as a Resident Artist in 2024. From her very first performance in “End of the Line” to her final bow with us at “WIP 314,” we have enjoyed her presence both on and off stage.

Help us wish her all the best as she pursues new adventures outside of St. Louis! You will be missed, Abigail!
