In addition to MK’s involvement, Mom Katie, a dance instructor and alum of the same studio,
choreographed the group dances for the class she teaches and for the big
opening production. It was the first time the studio owner had passed the opening number choreography to one of her instructors.

I also enjoy the glimpse of the solo performances via Jeremy's photos. Although not her choreogaphy, these soloists were Katie's students.

We did manage to
attend our two Georgia granddaughters’ recitals on our way to a wedding
in Virginia. Photos and video were not allowed, but I do have Technicolor
memories.
Maybe next year I will have even more firsthand memories of performances involving the contributions of all our dancers, both growing and grown.

ReplyDeleteIt looks just wonderful, and SO professional! I am sorry you did not make it. And yes, I would recognize Molly Kate anywhere! They look adorable in their little green dresses, and the Mad Hatter is dressed perfectly. The first picture is awesome! Alone and waiting for her cue.
ReplyDeleteWow, dance recitals have really improved. That looks like a Broadway production.
ReplyDeleteSo hope you can get the video but the pictures had to ease the disappointment some.
I know you were disappointed to miss the recital, but what WONDERFUL photos you have! You son captured some great shots.
ReplyDeleteI didn't realize that so much dance talent ran in your family either! The recital looks like a job well done :)
Fantastic photos.
ReplyDeleteThat first one is a prize winner.
So sorry you had to miss the beautiful recital but I.m glad you have technicolor memories.
I attended Rita's recitals for years. Now granddaughter is all grown up and managing a salon. Too bad your could not see the recital first hand. I know after a while, attending all the various events becomes overwhelming. I just hope I can make it to a sports event when I visit my grandsons.
ReplyDeleteThat Mad Hatter is wonderful. Love the posies too!
Marvelous photos!! Wow @ the Cheshire Cat. I know you were sad to miss the recital, but the images help a lot, I'm betting. Your granddaughter is just darling and she seems really happy dancing.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photos, wonderful dancers!
