We're closing out our current season with a huge bang! Bye Bye Birdie, the 1950s themed musical comedy, will draw you in with it's great singing, dancing, and laughs. When teen heartthrob and rock & roll star, Conrad Birdie, is drafted into the Army it causes quite the kerfuffle! He travels to a small town in Ohio to make his “farewell” television appearance and to share an on-air kiss with his biggest fan. Needless to say, the locals are beside themselves and hilarity abounds!

Catch one of our performances on Fridays & Saturdays at 7:30 p.m. or on Sundays at 2:00 p.m., June 17 - July 10. Tickets are on sale now at the button below or directly from our box office at 340 Second Street / (530) 666-9617. Hours: Tues. - Fri. from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. & 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Have you noticed our show poster (pictured right) on the digital billboard near I-5 and County Road 102? We're thrilled to see it! Many thanks to the City of Woodland for arranging.

Read what people are saying about working with Jeff!

“Jeff made the (class) very welcoming, relaxed, and stress free – something I haven’t felt before when attempting to dance in front of others!” - Shane Burrows about Musical Theatre Dance

“Jeff's class is enjoyable and interactive. He makes a point not only to assess each dancer individually but provide specific feedback for each student. The choreography is simple enough that even a novice could learn, yet still challenging for those who have had previous dance experience. I have learned a great deal from him!” – Irma Weldon, Musical Theatre Dance

And One Last Note From

Our Recent

Follow the Yellow Brick Road Dance Showcase

In our last newsletter we failed to mention our appreciation of the Strelitzia Flower Company. They were fabulous, and key in helping us with our flower cart and bouquet sales at the recent Dance Showcase.

We are so proud of our students and all of the hard work they put into each performance, receiving such beautiful congratulatory bouquets after the shows was a wonderful way to acknowledge them!

Thank you Strelitzia, for supporting our fundraising efforts

and our students!
