The matinee will be showcasing our Beginning level dancers as well as our Company repertoire.  The evening performance will be comprised of Intermediate and Advanced level dancers. Family members of Company dancers and dancers in both shows will receive complimentary admission to the evening performance if they purchased tickets and attended the matinee show.

Recital packets detailing dancer's assigned show, dress rehearsal schedule, photo, video, and ticket sales information will be handed out in class within the next couple of weeks.  

If you have a pre-arranged conflict with any of the above dates, please let us know immediately.  We do our best to solve problems when made known far enough in advance.
