Recital 2023


Recital Weekend: June 10 & 11, 2023
Location: Chanhassen High School Theater
In June, we will be hosting multiple shows including Recreational class dancers and our Competition team dancers.
Each class/team is assigned to a specific show according to your class’s day of the week. We do our best to create show assignments that benefit dancers taking multiple classes with siblings, however with many smaller/shorter shows, dancers/families will most likely be assigned to different shows.
Recreational class shows will last approximately 60-minutes and
Competition team shows about 180-minutes.

The Recital is a professionally directed performance that allows our DAC dancers to show off the results of their hard work and dedication to a live audience!
It is true when they say that dancers live for the stage, which is why the annual recital is a performance opportunity that all dancers look forward to. A big part of the training process includes learning through performance. This experience helps build self-esteem and confidence in our dancers. Participating in Recitals also helps dancers develop retention skills, team work, and adaptability. Not to mention it is SO MUCH FUN!
Each class will begin learning their recital choreography in January! After 5months of practice during class time the recital serves as a culmination of their effort and progress! They will showcase their routine(s) wearing a special costume, tights, dance shoes and optional make-up for the stage. Your attendance and applause at the end of each routine is the reward dancers receive for months of effort, and the dancers walk off the stage feeling satisfied about a job well done.
