Spring Showcase Information
Showcase Information
The Children’s Showcase is an end of year demonstration for students in Fundamentals of Dance, Pre-Ballet, Level 1, and Adaptive Dance. The Showcase will be held at the Bolender Center Frost Studio Theater on Saturday, May 13, 2023. Below you will find more details regarding this performance opportunity.
Rehearsal Information
All rehearsals will take place during the student’s regularly scheduled class times beginning in March. We encourage students to have good attendance for the remainder of the school year so they don’t miss any rehearsals for the show.
Performance Information
The theme this year is inspired by the book “Animal Poems for Children”. This book is a collection of animal poems written by different authors. Each poem explores what it’s like to be a particular animal. Each class has been given one of these animal poems as inspiration for their showcase piece.

What does the performance look like?
This year’s showcase is based off of the children’s book “Animal Poems for Children”. Each class will be given a different animal poem and selected piece of music for the showcase. Their teacher will use the skills they have been practicing in class to create a short piece for the students to demonstrate. Each performance is around 30 minutes long.
