The Annual Recital is an exciting event and we encourage all students Dancing Princesses and up to participate. Every year we write and choreograph a different original theme. We do our best to make a memorable experience and organize a short, tight and an on-time event for all to enjoy. The recital is a great lesson to our Students and although it is an optional event we encourage them to participate. Dance is, after all, a performance art, and the Students prepare for their dance and hope to do their best on stage and show what they've learned.

Eligibility - except for students who missed a lot of classes during the school year, or joined us after March 31, everybody in levels Dancing Princesses and up is welcome to participate in the recital. For those who are not eligible, we have created an easier acting/dancing part in the recital program. Please contact the office if you are interested in participating.

Due to the high number of students participating, we have two separate recitals: one in the morning and one in the afternoon. Likewise, we have two dress rehearsals on the day before the recital.
