SUMMARY:Ann Freeman Dance Academy Older Ballet & Recital
DESCRIPTION:Ann Freeman Dance Academy is pleased to announce two end-of-year recitals at the J.E. Broyhill Civic Center on Sunday\, May 31\, 2026\, and will be performed by our AFDA students\, staff\, and guests. \nOur Older Student Ballet recital\, “La Boutique Fantasque\,” is a whimsical comic ballet about a magical toy shop where dolls come to life after hours. Set in France\, the story follows a toymaker whose dancing dolls are purchased by different families\, only for the toys to escape rather than be separated from one another. Filled with humor\, lively characters\, and imaginative choreography\, the ballet is known for its charming storyline and colorful music adapted from works by Gioachino Rossini. Our older students\, ages 10 through our adult classes\, and AFDA staff will perform. The ballet will be followed by “Let Your Inner Glow Shine”\, and performances by our Performance Company. The recital begins at 7:00 pm.
