SCENES FROM THE POLAR EXPRESS 2012

We are thrilled to once again be presenting our annual dance drama, SCENES FROM THE POLAR EXPRESS, December 22 and 23 at the Wheeler School in Providence.

POLAR, based on the children's book by local author Chris van Allsburg, has become a holiday classic with Rhode Island-area families-- with original dance, an eclectic soundtrack and wonderful performances by our young company members.

 Don't miss us this year-- the weekend before Christmas, or almost literally, "night before a holiday."
