Why a Spring Showcase? We believe all dancers deserve the opportunity to dance on a stage!

Our Spring Showcase is a celebration of dance, growth, and accomplishment at The Dance Academy. This special event gives every dancer the opportunity to share their hard work and shine on stage while families experience their growth in skill, confidence, and artistry throughout the year.

Featuring teacher-choreographed performances, professional theatrical lighting, and videography, our Showcase gives every dancer the opportunity to experience the magic of performing on a real stage in front of a live audience.

Our Showcase takes place annually in May at a local performing arts center.

    Professional Production

    From expert lighting and stage design to videography capturing every moment, our dancers’ performances are presented with the same care and polish as a full-scale theater show.

All students enrolled in a class (excluding all acro classes) between the first day of the fall session in August and January 31 are included in the performance for the Spring Showcase. Classes close to new students on February 1 to ensure choreography, costumes, and all show details are perfectly coordinated for our May performance.
