A Christmas Cracker – DancEncounter

DancEncounter is excited to present a different kind of ‘cracker’, this season. A Christmas Cracker is a festive mealtime tradition and table decoration common to most British households at Christmas, from working class to royalty. They are bright, fun, sparkly, noisy, funny and contain small gifts, puzzles, jokes or riddles. What better material might there be, to create a holiday variety show that features the gift of dance, the fun of the season and the various contents of a Christmas Cracker, while exploring and honoring its history. Join all local students as they bring their newly learned, original choreography to the stage in celebration of the art of dance, the holidays and time-honored, cultural tradition.
