Christmas Show 2026: Performer Place (3 - 17.9yrs)
Chobham Academy
Every DWU dancer is invited onto the stage for our Christmas Show on Sunday 13 December at Chobham Academy: a warm, happy Christmas show for the whole DWU family. Every kids' class takes to the stage, we finish with one big finale, and Santa arrives at the end. One place per dancer, £45, however …more many dances they're in. It includes: - a hired costume for every dance they're in - a present from Santa at the finale - all the professional photos and the full show video - one ticket for a grown-up to watch Does my child have to perform? No, it's their choice, but we really encourage it. The show is a safe place to build confidence and self-esteem: they dance with their friends in front of a very friendly audience and get lots of support and encouragement on the day. Book two performing siblings together in one basket and the second is 10% off. Solos and duets are by teacher invitation and cost nothing extra. Please book as soon as you can, and by Sunday 6 December at the latest. Dancers arrive at 1pm (under-5s at 1.30pm) to warm up, rehearse on stage and get changed. The show starts at 5pm and finishes around 6pm. We'll share the running order by Sunday 6 December. less
