Stars in Motion:
BMCA Spring Dance Recital 2026

A Sparkling Celebration of Creativity, Growth, and Community

Get ready to watch our dancers twirl, leap, and shine! Stars in Motion is the Black Mountain Center for the Arts’ premier Spring Dance Recital, celebrating a full year of artistic growth and the incredible "sparkle" our students have shown in the studio. From our "tiny twinkles" making their stage debut to our seasoned performers, every dancer gets their moment to dazzle the community in this high-energy showcase.More than just a performance, this recital is a joyful milestone that highlights the power of teamwork and community magic. As friends, classmates, and instructors cheer each other on, these young artists build life-long confidence with every step and spin. It is a heartwarming opportunity for families, friends, and fans to gather and celebrate the dedication and fun that defines our dance program. Come see our stars in motion—because every leap truly lights up the stage!

Your dancer must arrive a few minutes before their call time, fully dressed in their costume with hair and makeup done. A volunteer will be at the backstage door to check your student in for the day and bring them back to the appropriate dressing room. No parents who are not official volunteers will be allowed in the dressing room area/backstage for safety reasons. All dancers must bring a filled-up bottle with them for the day. All dancers will get to rehearse onstage during dress rehearsal. Please note that this is a closed rehearsal (no parents/caregivers allowed in the auditorium). Doors will open for all attendees at 3:30 pm. 

 

After check-in, dancers 7 and older are required to remain backstage till after the show is over. After the show has concluded, they must be checked out at the backstage door after they collect all of their belongings from the dressing room.

 

Call time for young dancers (ages 3-6) is 2:40 pm. After the closed dress rehearsal, they will wait backstage with our volunteers until it is time to go onstage for the show. During intermission, all young dancers (ages 3-6) must be picked up/checked out for the day at the dressing room hallway door. Young dancers will sit with their caregiver during the 2nd half of the show. They will be called up on stage at the end of the show for bows (through the side door at the front of the auditorium). After bows, you must pick them up from the same door right away. 

 

*Please note: If your dancer is in multiple dances, they should come dressed in the costume of the dance they are doing first (ask your teacher) and they will need to bring their other costume(s)/dance shoes  and accessories packed neatly in a bag. They must be wearing a nude leotard (with spaghetti straps) under all costumes so they can change quickly and comfortably in the dressing room.
