Holiday Troupe, not your average tutu and tiara.

This show features 30-50 volunteer dancers from our studio, ages 6 to 18, who put on a fast-paced, entertaining 30-minute show. The troupe performs at five to seven venues per season, each completely different from the last and with a unique audience, so the dancers are trained to be ready for anything. Holiday routines are rotated in and out of the program each year, combining ideas and using a wide variety of music. Some of these routines are classics and remain in the show every year. Here’s a sampling: Ragdolls in Toyland, Spoon Dance, Frosty and Friends, and more! Students are placed in parts by age and level, and by the types of classes they take (some dances require tap).

For all the effort, planning, and preparation put into this show, the benefits are reaped tenfold. Generating community goodwill, offering noncompetitive performance opportunities to the students, and spreading the love of dance and holiday cheer to such a vast audience brings satisfaction to everyone involved. They know that they are part of something special at an important time of year.

Invitations are handed out mid-September, rehearsals begin in October, and performances in December.
