WOW! The entire performance was awesome! I took my mom and my 5 year old neice and my neice was sitting on the edge of her seat the entire show. The next morning she woke up asking to go back and see it again. We cant wait until next year to take everyone in the family. This should run at least an entire month during the holidays. It made me want to join the dance academy. With our children using their time wisely and keeping busy creatively this world wouldn't be as crazy. Next year it needs to be at the Kodak or a venue that can accomodate more people. Everything was great from the roaches to the rats (all apart of the acts). An absolute must see! Again, WOW!
