Lynchburg Dance Connection Presents: NEW YORK

This April, over 200 dancers, studios, teams, and dance crews in the Central Virginia area will come together for Lynchburg Dance Connection’s Third Annual Dance Showcase LIVE from the Historic Academy Theatre stage!

Lynchburg Dance Connection’s showcase aims to unify the dance community here in Lynchburg and the surrounding areas. Each year, dancers in the community compete against one another, so we are continuing to encourage a positive environment binding together what makes each group unique with zero competition. The diversity in this community is what makes each group unique and we are excited to bring everyone together again for a night to celebrate each other and the one thing we all have in common, Dance.

During this event, creatives come together to support each other and their works. We will also be handing out $2,000 in cash scholarships to graduating High School in College Seniors that perform that evening. The $2,000 comes from donations from the community itself and assists dancers as they venture into their next chapter.
