Recital Day is ON! 2020 Style.

December 17, 2020 / by Charlotte Williamson / Leave a Comment

When every theater in America went dark for safety, we were still determined to hold a recital.  Recital is SUCH an important part of dance education.  It promotes confidence, celebrates the student’s achievements throughout the year, & is of course an annual tradition.  Skipping a year of recital was NOT an option.

So we transformed our dance studio into our own personal theater, with seating for 4.

Students could sign up for an individual recital & perform their dance for their family.  Smiles were beaming through everyone’s masks.

It turned out to be a super special & intimate event & is now included in our regular studio activities.

One dancer, Hannah, was very hesitant to perform.  It takes much more bravery to do a solo!  And I was a little concerned that she was going to be too overwhelmed.  Hannah had a huge audience: Some people just showed up to stand outside the studio & cheer since our audience was limited.  Everyone was holding their breath & sending her courage through osmosis.  And suddenly . . . a huge smile spread across her face & she relaxed.  She lit up the stage & performed with so much energy & emotion.

I was practically in tears at the end of her performance because I felt how much everyone – her family & the ADC teachers – wanted this wonderful experience for her . .. AND she did it!

Our individual recitals were a great way for us to get to know our ADC Families better & to fall in love with our students even more.

PS – We let lovely Hannah perform 2xs that day to a sold out show each time.  No Grandpa left behind! 🙂
