Dance Company

 

Downtown Dance Theatre is an auditioned performing/competing dance company. Auditions are held in the spring for ages 10 to 18. Students who are selected as a D.D.T. company member get to participate in two to three convention/competitions a year. They are featured in the recital as D.D.T. and parents have reserved front row seats at the recital.

Company trips such as New York trips and traveling to see Mr. Ashley in the Nutcracker each year are just a couple of the activities in which they participate. The student is required to take at least two technique classes, and 1 jazz class a week. However, just about all of the company members take the required classes as well as modern, tap, hip hop and break dancing.

D.D.T. company members also participates in community outreach such as art festivals, nursing homes, retirement communities etc.

The Company meets every Saturday at 9am. They typcially start with the company class and then begin rehearsals at 2pm.
