Dance Shows

Every student at The Academy has the opportunity to perform in the annual dance show. They are fun, high energy and the highlight of our dance year.

This Year – 2025

Ten!

This year’s performance celebrates the 10th annual performance and will feature students from as young as 3 years old right through to adults, showcasing ballet, tap, acrobatics and street jazz.

I’ve looked back over the previous 10 shows and chosen my favourite dances, to combine them into a celebration.

Show photos are now available

Photos from both the show and rehearsal are now available to buy. You can find the password in the monthly email newsletter.

2014 Dance Show

2014 was the first year Pennine Academy of Dance was open. By December the school was 7 months old and had 10 students aged between 3 and 6.

These students performed bravely to over 80 proud parents and relatives who came to watch a ballet, tap and modern performance.
