Embark on a heartwarming journey this holiday season with the "Holiday Spectacular," presented by Little Leapers and the LEAP Performing Arts Academy is a captivating musical that tells the story of Emily, a young and ambitious dancer with dreams of starring as Clara in the Nutcracker. Faced with disappointment and driven by a desire for fame, Emily's journey takes an unexpected turn as she leaves her small town for the bustling streets of New York City.
In the city, Emily's world is turned upside down as she encounters a colorful array of characters, each teaching her valuable life lessons. From the busy streets filled with the hustle and bustle of city life to the unique and vibrant community of misfits led by the charismatic Bernice, Emily finds herself in a world vastly different from the one she knew.
The story takes a dramatic turn when Emily's own actions inadvertently lead to a magical Christmas surprise, and her initial pursuit of stardom transforms into a deeper understanding of the joy of being part of something larger than oneself.
As she navigates through these new experiences, Emily begins to understand the true meaning of Christmas and the importance of community, humility, and giving.
Join us for a delightful journey that promises to fill your holiday season with cheer, laughter, and a renewed appreciation for the spirit of giving.
