Thank you to all the families that visited New England Dance Centers in Westfield, MA and Granby, CT this week for our musical theater department’s performances of “Beautiful Day”.
The students all did a fantastic job with their one act plays, bringing a smile to everyone’s face with their beautiful voices, drama skills and overall cuteness!
Older classes presented the plays that they created in our actor’s workshop script writing classes.
Some parents have posted videos to our Facebook page (thank you!) that we encourage you to watch.
Registration for next year’s classes begins in May. Be sure to visit www.newenglanddance.com for schedules and forms.

The Kids’ Cabaret Shares Holiday Spirit
On Sunday November 21, 2010, The Kids’ Cabaret of New England Dance and Gymnastics Centers sang Christmas Carols at the Holyoke Mall in Holyoke, MA.
The event, The Magical Night of Giving, is a charitable fundraiser and a holiday season kick off for the mall. The musical theater students at NEDC are invited each year to perform as a charitable donation.
In addition to learning that they can give to their community, the event gives the theater students a chance to perform in public and show off their singing skills. After performing Christmas Carols for about an hour at one of the main entrances, The Kids’ Cabaret sang “Santa Claus is Coming to Town” until Santa made his first official appearance at the mall.
The musical theater department of New England Dance Centers in both Westfield, MA and Granby, CT is proud to participate in this event and even more proud of the students that brought joy and happiness to the shoppers that evening.
This is a short video of the evening performance:

Winter Musical Theater Performances
As we approach the holiday season the musical theater students at New England Dance & Gymnastics Centers will have a couple of opportunities to share their talents with friends and family.
First up is the opportunity to perform at the Holyoke Mall’s “Magical Night of Giving” on November 21, 2010. We will gather at the Service desk on the first level at 7:15pm and will sing holiday songs from 7:30 to 8:30pm. At 8:30pm our group will sing as the opening act for the first arrival of Santa Claus at the mall. As one student put it last year, “We open for Santa, that rocks!”.
All students are encouraged to participate. Performers should dress as they would for a holiday party and wear comfortable shoes. This is a wonderful chance for the kids to be appreciated by the public and to give to a charitable event at the same time. Lesley will need confirmation of your participation prior to the event. Please email: nedctheaterdepartment@yahoo.com.
Our next winter performances will be held at the dance studios the last week before winter recess. Feel free to invite extended family and bring your cameras. The kids are already working on some wonderful pieces to share with you! The schedule for these performances is:
GRANBY CT Students: Monday December 20th during the normal class times.
WESTFIELD MA Students: Tuesday December 21st during the normal class times.
