THE PERFORMANCE EXPERIENCE: In this mini holiday showcase, dancers will share the stage with dancers close in age and put on an intimate show that you will remember for years to come. This approximate 20-minute performance will start with an opening number by RCDC pre-professional dancers that will introduce your STAR! Dancers will then perform their Holiday choreography, be presented with a special holiday gift, and wrap up with the finale performance.

A tutorial video will also be distributed in November for dancers wanting additional home practice. On the day of the show, dancers will get a short rehearsal backstage with RCDC staff. During the show, RCDC staff will be present to help & guide them through the choreography so they can perform their best!
