“Miss Lisa, are you a millionaire?” one ballerina asked the dance teacher.
“I’m not, but I am rich in love. I think love is what makes you rich,” Miss Lisa replied.
The dancers are preparing for Oz, the Ballet. They practiced their poppy dance and made faces as the Wicked Witch chased them around the dance studio. Costumes are in the works, and the dancers are excited to perform. Through the classes, young girls make friends, practice an art, and get some exercise. Their recital will be held at the Cornerstone Center for the Arts on Friday, May 15, 2026, and Saturday, May 16, 2026. (Photos by Kennedy Court, Anna Evilsizor and Kaylee Kern)
