GENERAL INFORMATION
THE LITTLE MATCH GIRL
Told Thru narration & Dance, Hans Christian Anderson's Beautiful story comes to life of a poor young girl who sees her dreams in the match light she uses to warm herself on New years Eve. To bring this story to the stage, We need students to dance the parts of twinkling Stars, Joyful Geese, dancing trees, rousing dinner guests, glowing fire, graceful snowflakes, soaring Angels and more! This bittersweet story is certain to warm your heart and spirit.
WINTER FUNDRAISER SHOW
Our Winter Production is a separate (Optional) program for students who want additional stage experience. It also serves as an important fundraiser for our studio. Full Season Students Age 3-up Are Eligible To enroll in our Winter production. Most students will perform one number in the show. Students will need to attend 6-8 rehearsals to learn & Practice their routine.
age 3-12 will be assigned a Rehearsal time Slot on Saturday afternoons between 11:00-4:00.
SATURDAY REHEARSALS BEGIN AFTER FALL BREAK (SCROLL DOWN TO SEE CAST LIST & REHEARSAL SCHEDULE)Teens and Company will learn Routines in their weekly Ballet class.
Costumes will either be borrowed from our Studio inventory, or (When possible) we will utilize Your last seasons (or this seasons) costumes! Students will need to purchase a Tan Camisole leotard & Tan Tights to wear under their costume.

COVID19 SAFETY For LIVE & VIRTUAL PERFORMANCE
We know our students and Families overwhelmingly want a live Performance. And so do we - but ONLY if we can do so Safely And responsibly! So we have Made it our mission to find The SAFEST way to make this possible Under current conditions and restrictions. After researching many, many options We determined the safest plan is to rent a VERY large Theater that will allow a Reduced Audience with families seated socially distanced from each other. additionally, (if covid is still spreading) masks will be needed on Staff, Audience members (age 3-up) and all dancers while waiting backstage (Dancers will not wear masks For the short time they are onstage) Whatever Gathering restrictions are in place come DEC will determine how many tickets each family can buy. we know this will likely not accommodate Your dancer’s entire fanClub - so we will also provide Pay Per View LIVE STREAM TICKETS so All Your friends and Relatives Who cannot attend in person, can safely watch from the comfort of home!
SHOULD COVID RESTRICTIONS PREVENT A LIVE AUDIENCE we will switch to a virtual production and film at the theater without an audience or at the studio (if the theater closes) And make our show Into a movie! Please be prepared that any of these options could apply (fees remain the same regardless of live or Virtual)
DRESS REHEARSAL @3:00 & SHOW @ 5:00 on SUNDAY DEC 13
The show is roughly 45 minutes.
we will hold a closed dress Rehearsal (no audience allowed) At the theater at 3:00 followed by the performance immediately following it at 5:00
STAGE: THE VENUE @ FRIENDSHIP SPRINGS
Last summer we performed Newsies at this theater, it is big, modern and beautiful! The Large auditorium and moveable seating will allow us to safely spread families out. (The pictures below show the auditorium set for a banquet, but illustrates how big the Room is and how we can spread out families)
