It’s recital week for the dancers at the Clarkesville School of Dance and the students have spent months preparing for their show. There will be two shows on Saturday, May 14th at 2:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m., at Habersham Central High School Theater. Tickets are still available online if you want to show support to our local dancers.
Clarkesville School of Dance is entering their tenth year of operation and currently has 168 students enrolled. Owner, director, and instructor Francie Keene shares her lifelong love of dance with her students. Keene has had more than 40 years of experience included a tenure on Broadway. On her studio website, she says, “I have excitement for the Arts and even more for young people. I want them to know, if they desire Broadway, they can have Broadway, and if they just love to dance, that’s ok too. I love to teach. That’s a great combination.”
