The dance corps were appropriately named as each and every dancer was a gem; Diamond, Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald; as well as the Creative Movement class and the Little Dreamers. The dances ranged from very young to 18, including several advanced performers who have a foreseeable future as professional dancers.

The energy in the theater was high with excited performers and their families and friends, the music was appropriate for the audience and each and every performance from the breathtaking ‘Circle of Life’ all the way to High School Musicals’ ‘All In This Together’, were beautifully performed and fun to watch. There was even a segment where two sisters were pulled into the magical world of the Disney Princesses, and welcomed into some of the most beloved stories many of us had grown up on and some new stories.

A highlight of the performance was the knowledge that the Diamond Corp dancers were graduating and moving on, as well as a performance their instructor presented to the girls and their parents, complete with a slide show that gave the entire audience a glimpse of how this performing ‘family’ grew together and was truly touching. The graduating dancers showed great skill throughout the performance and guidance for the younger performers, and I hope to someday see more from each and every one them.

If I only had one word to summarize this performance, it only seems apropos to do so in Disney tradition, Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
