The Zenon Dance Company blends cherished nursery rhymes with Tchaikovsky in this witty, madcap holiday romp. A December must-do for families, the 45-minute show enchants children with a real Mother Goose and her delightful entourage of Wee Willie Winkie, Mary Quite Contrary, Little Bo Peep and more. In addition to leaping sky high and twirling with panache, the impeccable Zenon dancers flaunt their versatile acting. “The entire production has a cozy-cottage-and-gingerbread feel that…appeals to kids from 3 to 93” (Pioneer Press).
