TARA YOUNGRaised in Calgary, Alberta, Tara began dancing at the age of three. Her dream was to be on Broadway and at just 19 years old she was fortunate enough to land her first job dancing with Liza Minnelli in “STEPPIN OUT at Radio City Music Hall”.

Within a few years, Tara knew that her passion was being part of the creative team that develops a Broadway Musical. She soon made the transition from performing to serving as an Associate Director/Choreographer. Tara has worked for over 21 years as an Associate on over a dozen Broadway Shows and National Tours with some of the most respected names on Broadway including Graciella Daniele, Scott Ellis, Frank Galati, Gillian Lynne, Stephen Mear, Hal Prince, Susan Stroman and Francesca Zambello.

Tara recently maintained the Broadway production of “The Little Mermaid” where she was the Associate to choreographer Stephen Mear. Being inspired daily by the remarkable actors and creative teams she works with, Tara brings enthusiasm, understanding and compassion to all that she does.
