PERFORMANCE PROJECT
Option for 2nd-year Intermediate and Advanced
This program was created to give 2nd-year Intermediate and Advanced dancers more rehearsal and performing experience.

Some additional rehearsals (Sunday mornings, for example) may be required as performance dates approach. There is no additional cost for the Performance Project, however dancers must attend 3 full days of the regularly scheduled classes for their levels or have permission from the directors to participate.
