E-Dance will present "A Night at the Movies"

Come to Elizabethtown College for "A Night at the Movies," but don't expect anything on a big screen. Instead, get ready to enjoy a recital featuring hundreds of dancers from E-Dance Center in Elizabethtown. The recital, featuring a movie theme, will be held in Leffler Chapel and Performance Center, 1 Alpha Drive, Elizabethtown, at 6 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, June 7 and 8, and at 2 p.m. on Sunday, June 9.

"The recital features over 270 dancers ages 6 to 70 years old," shared Camille Gubbins, owner of E-Dance Center. Dance genres will include ballet, tap, hip-hop, musical theater and clogging.

Audiences can expect to see tributes to popular movies, including "Avatar," "Trolls," "Singin' in the Rain," "Guardians of the Galaxy," "The Sound of Music," "Barbie" and more.

"There really is something for everyone in this year's show," Camille said. "We have numbers from old Western movies to space movies to current trends such as the Taylor Swift Eras Tour. We will even have a red carpet entrance into the lobby at Leffler Chapel."

A movie theme was the perfect way to showcase the dancers' talent and emphasize the creativity of the arts, she explained. "Movies have a profound impact in our lives and the world around us. They remind us that within the boundless realms of our imagination, anything is possible, and that is a truly empowering and inspiring message," she said. "Movies allow us to envision worlds beyond our own, to dream big and to create something truly remarkable."

Camille, who became the owner of E-Dance Center last June with her husband, Christopher, has been a teacher at the studio for a decade. E-Dance is in its 19th year serving students in central Pennsylvania. Camille said taking an active role in the local community is an important goal of the studio and its dancers.

"We have been involved in parades both here in Elizabethtown and in Harrisburg," she commented. "We perform at retirement communities and baseball games and various local events.  Our goal is to share our love of dance and the arts with our community."
