Recital 2024-2025

Recital Performance Information

Dancers & Parents: Please read through the following information & dates regarding our annual Recital performances.

This year is a little different from the past, as we will only have ONE show that is performed twice: once on June 6th & once on June 7th, 2025.

To clarify, this means there is no more separation (“Evening” & “Matinee”) & ALL dancers (including Dancer’s Edge) will perform together in BOTH shows. The two performances are mandatory to participate in the Recital.
