Peter Pan Cast List

Congratulations to the Cast of Peter Pan.

Casting was chosen by all of our faculty based on which dancer will represent each role the best, as well as which roles will help each
dancer grow artistically and technically. Casting is not up for discussion. Grace and humility must be shown amongst the parents
and dancers. We are happy to have been able to cast everyone who was interested in participating and we are looking forward to a great show.

Each Monday, expect the next weeks rehearsal schedule to be posted in your parent portal by late afternoon.

To view the schedule,
First go to your parent portal.
At the bottom, select the tab "shared files" with he music note
Then you can click on the Nutcracker schedule.

IMPORTANT: once you start rehearsals, it is EVERY week (Spring Break and Easter Break UNLESS a snow makeup is needed)
IMPORTANT: Rehearsal times change so please check the rehearsal schedule EVERY Monday.

Dance Makers Convention & Competition

FBC_Team_2023_2024Congratulations to our FBC Dance Team! The dancers got to take some amazing classes from industry professionals. This was our 1st competition this season. I am so very proud that FBC received the Shaffer Studio Award. "This will be awarded to the studio that shows support, encouragement, professionalism and shares their love for dance with others throughout the event." I am so very proud of my dancers, the parents, and my FBC Dance Team choreographers for representing FBC in such a positive light.

A special highlight: The duo of Madisyn and Leo received the highest honor of a DanceAgain! award. Only 6 dance pieces are chosen to perform again at the Sunday Wrap it Up ceremony. They also received a Judges' Top Pick award in the Duo/Trio category. Only 1 of those are given out.
