With 31 days to go, we are very happy to announce that the Lexington town mask mandate has been lifted and we get to see our beautiful dancers’s faces again! These two classes were doing show and tell of their recital dances and the smiles were contagious 😁
No one had the right answer to Sunday’s question but there were a few who were off by a couple. Including 2020’s virtual recital the answer was: 8 places! Which brings us to our next question: can you name all 8 places? We’ll reveal the answers tomorrow!
34 days to go! Does anyone know how many different places we’ve had our recitals over the years? Closest guess will get a special shout out tomorrow!
A few of you guessed correctly on yesterday’s post so here is the big reveal: our 20th anniversary recital was called “Come Dance with Me”!
