"The Gift" presented by Dove Dance School - 1PM

“The Gift” is a rare and breathtaking Christian ballet presented by Dove Dance, featuring a community cast of young dancers from 10 towns across the state. Adapted from the original MasterWorks Productions ballet, this story follows two sisters. Aleisha and Demetria. who are each entrusted with a symbolic gift from their father before he leaves for war. Aleisha receives a golden scarf that reflects her innocence and purity, while Demetria is given a living plant that thrives or decays based on the state of her heart. As the sisters grow, jealousy, pride, and bitterness begin to take root, leading to a heartbreaking rift that only redemption can heal. Through angelic scenes, woodland creatures, dramatic village moments, and a deeply moving portrayal of grace and resurrection, “The Gift” invites audiences to reflect on the condition of the heart and the transforming power of forgiveness. Beautifully crafted and powerfully told, this special community ballet runs just under an hour—making it perfect for families, church groups, and anyone wanting to enjoy this meaningful performance!
