PERFORMANCE OPPORTUNITIES
Nativity Ballet & Christmas Recital
Each year at Christmas, dancers will bring to life the true meaning of Christmas by taking the audience back to the scene of the Nativity. This coveted performance is so much more than a recital! It is a way for our dancers to reach into the hearts of the audience by honoring the birth of our Lord and Savior. Costume fees, costumes are a requirement to participate, will be due in installments starting in September. These costumes will also be worn in our spring recital. A recital fee will be due in November. This is a ticketed event.
Spring Recital
End of the school year means end of the year recital for our dancers! Dances will follow a story line or theme as they showcase all they have learned throughout the year. With beautiful costumes and professional show quality, dancers will feel like a star! Costume fees, a requirement to participate, will be due in installments starting in September. A recital fee will be due in March. This is a ticketed event.
