Our Mission
The Bluewater Dance Theatre serves to give local dancers an opportunity to be mentored, grow and perform. For our productions, we start with an intensive workshop offers a unique training experience where dancers will take class, rehearse, and develop their artistry in a focused pre-professional environment in preparation for the performance. Our family-friendly productions strive to promote the art of concert dance in the Bluewater area. Join us in celebrating the talent and passion of our community's young dancers by getting involved performing, volunteering, sponsoring or coming to the show.
In August, 2016, Bluewater Dance Theatre made their debut performance of Cinderella. We will be returning in July, 2017 with the ballet production of Alice in Wonderland.

HistoryThe first production of Cinderella, a fairy tale in dance, premiered October, 2005 at McMorran Auditorium led by Donna Galbraith and the International Performing Arts Company. The ballet returned in 2006 and 2007. In 2013, a new rendition of Cinderella was choreographed by Pauline Schultz. Cinderella is a community effort that brings together students from various dance studios for the opportunity to perform in a full-length production of such a timeless, magical story line.
