LIT Showcase

PERFORM your solos, duos, trios, and small group pieces. No bad judges. No Marley floors. No overpowering music. No Competition.

EVERYONE attending classes at LIT is welcome to register to perform in our showcase. Everyone who performs in the show gets 1 complimentary ticket for themselves to also attend as an audience member. 

RECOGNITION awards. Everyone performing in the LIT Tap Showcase is automatically eligible to receive a recognition award (including full scholarships to a future LIT).

Tables and chairs will be available for any student who wishes to watch other classes. We encourage you to bring lunch as food is permitted. HOWEVER, no sticky sugary drinks other than water or coffee. YOU are expected to be responsible for any trash you generate as respectable dancers always clean up after themselves...
