Please Autograph

Thank you for everyone coming to our first guild meeting and to our company agreement signing.  This year is off to a great start.  Please check back for more casting as well as for rehearsal pictures coming this weekend.

We were thrilled to have so many children come out and audition for our Nutcracker!  Congratulations to all our dancers, and welcome to all the new faces. 

 

If you dance with your heart your body will follow.

A Fresh Start

"Higher legs!  Bigger grande jetes!  Pointed feet!"  All things our dancers heard us yell during our first rehearsal weekend.  What they didn't hear was "Wow things look really good."  "We have a great start this year."  All things the artistic staff talked about after the rehearsal.  Sometimes we don't give enough positive feedback to our dancers but we do want to acknowledge the fact that all our dancers worked extremely hard this weekend.  
We definitely want to keep our spirits high and if everyone works as hard as they have been, then this years' Nutcracker is going to be one for the books!

Please do not forget to check the Company Board for any new postings.

The more you understand the music, the easier you can dance.

To dance is to be out of yourself. Larger, more beautiful, more powerful. This is power, it is glory on earth and it is yours for the taking.
