Evolution Dance Center Presents

Our 16th Annual Showcase

ALL EDC DANCERS ARE INCLUDED IN OUR SHOWCASE

For your convenience, your dancer has been automatically included in our June Showcase. Performing on the big stage is a huge part of the curriculum at EDC and a great opportunity for every dancer age 2-18! We challenge each dancer at their level to be the best they can be, and we can not wait to see them shine on the big stage.
