The News attended a dress rehearsal earlier this week to find out why the young dancers of Shepparton joined the art form and why they love it.
Here’s what they had to say.

When I was zero, I started to dance around and I like it because I like that the teachers tell me what to do. I think I’m best at doing cartwheels but my favourite part is the lights on the stage.

Ever since I was little I wanted to grow up as a dancer. It’s very fun because you get to dance in front of people at the concert and they always clap for us. The dressing up is good too.

When I was little I would always dance and move and would do it a lot. It makes me tired but I love dancing. I think I’m good at it now and I still think it’s fun.

I always wanted to dance in the pool and I was going to do gymnastics but the groups were filled up so it was either nothing or acro. I like dancing cause I get to be with my friends.
