The 2023 Christmas season was a special one for Showtime HMS Performing Arts, with our dancers proudly taking part in both the Armadale Christmas Parade and the Perth Alinta Energy Christmas Pageant.
For many of our students, the Armadale parade marked their very first time performing in a community parade, and we couldn’t have been prouder. Stepping out in front of large crowds, navigating a moving performance space and performing with confidence is a big achievement, especially for first-time performers. Opportunities like these are a huge part of what we love to offer at Showtime HMS – building confidence, courage and a love of performing.
In addition to the larger parades, our students also performed in a small community parade at Harrisdale Shopping Centre to help welcome Santa – a lovely opportunity to perform locally and spread some Christmas cheer.
Our Perth Alinta Energy Christmas Pageant appearance was another exciting highlight. Performing in such a large-scale event and then spotting our dancers during the television broadcast was incredibly exciting for students and families alike. Seeing their hard work showcased on TV made the experience even more memorable.
Both parades were a wonderful way to celebrate the end of the year, create lasting memories and share the joy of dance with the wider community.
