Tribute to Gerry

Central School of Dance is heartbroken to announce the passing of Gerry Wieland.
For over 30 years, Gerry has been an essential part of our school, designing and creating the amazing costumes for our shows.
She would come to rehearsals and classes, spending countless hours measuring, fitting, and altering costumes, and always providing much-needed support to our teachers during the “show madness.”
As our backstage manager at every show, she got to know hundreds of past and present students.
Gerry was one of the kindest, most caring, most patient people, and I have had the pleasure of knowing her my entire life and she will be deeply missed by us all.
