Holiday Showcase gives our students a chance to show off all they have been working on in their classes and have the opportunity to Live on Stage! Each of our group Dance, Musical Theatre, and Vocal classes participate in our Showcase and are assigned to one of our 3 shows.
The performance date, call times, and show times are show-specific.
WHAT SHOW(S) IS MY CHILD IN?
Please explain to your performer that participating in our showcase is a commitment. Deciding to opt-out of the show after the drop deadline, once their choreography and formations are set is unfair to the instructor, as well as their classmates. Please stress the importance of adhering to this commitment through the show.

HOW CAN I OPT-OUT OF THE PERFORMANCE?
During the first week of October, each of your child’s showcase enrollments will be visible in the Customer Portal. In order to avoid being charged any performance fees, you must opt-out of each performance your child is not participating in by October 15th.
- Navigate to your child’s account on your Customer Portal account
- Click on their ‘Enrollments’ tab
- Locate the performance that they will be opting out of (be sure the enrollment says the SHOW before the class title. Otherwise, you might be requesting to drop their class entirely)
- Select ‘Drop Enrollment’
- Select any date as your drop date
- Optional: add notes regarding your reasoning for opting out
SHOWCASE FAQ's
Unfortunately, no. All classes are assigned to their show based on many factors like class size, age of students, class discipline, day of week, etc. and cannot be changed.
Yes! We still encourage full participation in class throughout the next few months. We love using our non-performing students as a real-world demonstration of the “swing performer” role and having them step into spots where other kids are absent. This is great training for the future (and swing spots generally offer more challenge and compensation!).
Yes you can still opt-out, however, our teachers work extremely hard to plan specific formations and choreography depending on who has committed to participate. If we are more than a few months into the preparation process, it would be incredibly difficult to lose the commitment of any of our performers. We ask that you please reconsider your decision to drop the Showcase after the drop deadline.
Please note, failure to opt-out of the Showcase before the deadline results in being charged a $25 costume fee per class. If you choose to opt-out of Showcase after the drop deadline, any costume fees paid cannot be credited or refunded.
Dress rehearsal takes place during normal class time, in the last class before the Showcase performance weekend.
All levels and ages of group vocal, dance, and musical theatre classes participate in Showcase. All levels and ages of Acting, Improv, Private lessons have separate shows in the spring (more info below!)
Ballet Tech/Pre-Pointe, Theatre Production, and Tricks & Turns are qualified as non-performing classes.
Yes. Acting, Improv Acting, and Private Lesson students have their own performances this spring. More information for Spring shows to come. Please click here to view our studio’s calendar (subject to change).
All rehearsals take place during class. No rehearsal time outside of class is required.
“Chicken Nugget” is just another term for our required nude-colored underdressings. When all the performers wear their nude underdressings, they all look like “Chicken Nuggets!”
We pass out costumes in class, 2 weeks prior to the performance, during Costume Distribution Week. Students must wear the required underdressings to class.
No, we size costumes in class on the day of costume distribution.
No, you may not keep your child’s costume, as we reuse them for each show. If you do not return the costume after the performance, you will be charged a late rental fee of $50.
We cannot guarantee tickets on the day of the performance. The best way to secure tickets is by purchasing them online prior to the show.
Please note that our shows can sell out.
If you wish to watch your child’s performances in each cast that they perform in, then yes, you must purchase a ticket to each cast.
Unfortunately, we do not have a multi-show ticket discount at this time.
All ticket sales are final. No refunds or exchanges are permitted. Please make sure to check your child’s cast through your Customer Portal before finalizing ticket purchases.
All ticket sales are final. No refunds or exchanges are permitted.
We know tickets for these shows are in high demand! And although we do not facilitate ticket returns or exchanges, we created a chat forum you can participate in if you’re looking to sell or buy tickets to any of our Showcases on this page.
