Holiday Production
​
​
All shows are performed at area schools and to the public at an area theatre. The performance includes dancers from 1st grade through 12th grade with dances ranging from intermediate level to a pre-professional level. By taking our Holiday show on the road, it gives the dancers the opportunity to bring the joy of dance, drama and the excitement of a theatre production to those who might not have the opportunity to enjoy it. Feature roles and dance solos are available for those participating in our placement program. Detailed eligibility, time commitments and costs associated with this performance can be found at the Customer Service Counter during fall registration. Rehearsals begin in late October.

Production Description
It was a very snowy December and Alice ventured out into the fluffy white snow on one December 24th eve. As she took a step into a deep part of the snow, she fell into a rabbit hole which cascaded her downward for a long time until she hit the bottom and was greeted by a large rabbit! The Rabbit scolded Alice for taking so long to come to Winterland because she was very much needed to help their beautiful Snow Queen who was going through a challenging personal snow storm. Each December 24th evening at midnight the Winterland Snow Queen would place a magical golden glove onto her arm and step out into the moonlight and wave her arm. The golden glove and graceful wave would stop time so that Mr. Claus could travel around the world in one night to bring holiday cheer around the globe. The golden glove had been stolen and they needed Alice to help find the thief or the golden glove before midnight! Alice thought certain that she was dreaming until Rabbit conducted a huge Winterland Festival just for Alice to prove that she was awake. Alice agreed to assist in finding the golden glove but she was distracted by the Mad Hatters extravagant Tea Party. Rabbit became agitated and full of frustration because as Alice drank tea and had fun at the tea party, time was running out! The Queen of Winterland was very sad and distraught and felt the situation was hopeless. When the Queen of Winterland cried, a frightful snow storm of blizzard proportions arose. Time was running out and it was up to Alice to help the Queen and Winterland.
