It's going to be a circus of fun for the Lee Anne Stewart Dance Schools' 37th annual dance production.
The annual production is the culmination of training for the dance studio's students.
"This year's theme is going to be fun for dancers and audience members of all ages," says Lee Anne Stewart, owner and operator of the dance schools. "The show is exciting and is reminiscent of fond circus memories for all."
The Nappanee studio will hold its performances at Warsaw Community High School Performing Arts Center June 12 at 7 p.m. and June 13 at 4 p.m.
Performances also will be held for the Syracuse studio at Warsaw Community High School Performing Arts Center June 18 at 7 p.m.; June 19 at 7 p.m.; and June 20 at 4 p.m.
Tickets for all productions are just $8.50 each.
June will mark the close of Stewart's 37th year of teaching dance in the greater Wawasee area. A second studio was opened in Nappanee in fall 1996. Both studios host students from many surrounding communities including Goshen, Leesburg, Warsaw, Bremen and Plymouth among others.
Some of the songs audiences will enjoy at this year's show include "Cotton Candy Ballet", "Tears of a Clown", "Big Top" and "Circus". Also during the productions, more than 50 students will be receiving awards for five, 10 and 15 years of taking classes at the Stewart Dance schools.
"I'm so proud of each of the students performing, but I love recognizing the young dancers who reach these milestones in their dance education," said Stewart.
