The holiday season isn't quite here yet, but for several students of ADC it began in August. Back in August, SIDEWAYS Contemporary Dance Company (directed by Ms. Charlotte!) held auditions for students to be a part of their professional show, “Once Upon A Holiday.” Rehearsals for the show began shortly after in September.
These dedicated students have been rehearsing every Saturday afternoon since! They've been quickly putting together the choreography for the show and it's no secret that their youthful spirit helps bring the show to life. Elves are marching, penguins are waddling, reindeer are prancing, and all of our young dancers have officially learned their parts for the show!
This past Saturday we took some behind the scenes rehearsal shots for you as a sneak peek of what is going on in the studio as we prepare to bring the show to life on the Blessed Trinity High School stage.

Tickets for Once Upon A Holiday are now on sale (here!) and you don't want to miss this exciting show. Once Upon A Holiday is the perfect way to kick off your holiday season, especially because the performance comes right before all of the hustle and bustle begins. Come see both students and professionals bring the holiday season to life November 20 – 22 at Blessed Trinity High School.
