Expressions Dance

Does your child dream of life on the stage? Give them the opportunity to experience the magic, fun and hard work that goes into a stage show while having fun during the winter holidays. Enrol your dancer to spend the holidays learning routines, putting together costumes, making headgears and set before putting on a show or 2!
Dance Camp Participants spend Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday learning their routines for the show. Expressions Dance Company senior dancers dance alongside the Dance Camp Dancers, help them learn their routines and help sort costumes as well as have break time fun in the studios.
Thursday is the big day - we do a dress rehearsal in the morning followed by a show at 2pm, pizza for tea and then a show at 6.30pm so that working parents and grandparents can see the stars in action!
