Vashon Dance Academy and Dance!Vashon will present their annual performance featuring over 100 young dancers, along with a few Dancing Dads, on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, June 9, 10, and 11, at the Vashon High School theater.

This year’s performance is a modern twist on “Snow White,” with dance styles ranging from hip hop to modern to ballet. Artistic Director Cheryl Krown said the show is “not about a prince coming to the rescue, but about having strength in your own character amidst false reflections.”

The Evil Queen will be danced by Jules Vanselow and Talia Spurlock; Snow White by Isa Sanson-Frey and Sophie Blasingim; the Queen’s Spirit by Maggie Raymond; and the Evil Queen’s Image will be danced by Hannah Spranger and Lyla Mildon. The rest of the cast will take on roles from frogs to fireflies and a forest that’s come to life.

Tickets are sold at Vashon Bookshop, as well as at the door.
