What happened at the showcase
The showcase is the emotional peak of our year. Thirty-two pieces moved from tiny beginners' first pliés to the advanced pointe variations, with hip-hop and street crews bringing the second act to a roar. A live string ensemble accompanied the ballet repertoire — a first for our studio, and a night nobody present will forget.
Every class that term contributed a piece, choreographed by its own instructor and rehearsed in the final six weeks. Families filled the hall, the finale brought all 280 performers on stage together, and the after-party social danced until the lights came up.
- Thirty-two pieces from every class level, age 6 to adult
- Live string ensemble for the classical repertoire
- 280 performers in a joint finale on the main stage
- After-party social for dancers, families and friends
How casting works
Casting opens eight weeks before show night and every enrolled student gets a place. Rehearsals fold into normal class time with two Sunday stage rehearsals, and costumes are provided by the studio at no extra cost.
