The <b>Genee International Ballet Competition</b> is one of the most prestigious events in the dance calendar -The Olympics of the Ballet world. So, it is perfectly fitting that this year, young dancers, aged from 14 to 19 years old, compete in Athens, home to the 2004 Olympic Games, to win the coveted gold, silver or bronze medals on the stage of the Odeon of Herod Atticus. On June 6, admire the young artists' talent and technique demonstrated in choreographies by Antony Dowson and Christopher Hampson, in a grand production that bears the signatures of the Royal Academy of Dance and the Cultural Olympiad. <br><br>
