A Peek Behind the Scenes of "Olelucia"

This past Saturday, renowned dance photographer Erik Voss came to our studio, and took photographs during rehearsal for "Once Upon a Christmas in Olelucia"!  The curtain goes up Saturday December 13th and Sunday December 14th!  

 We are not in full costume, but you get the general idea!  Thank you, Erik!
