And with my last visit to the 2023 Nutcracker show, it was nothing but splendid! The performance center itself is part of the Riverside Community College, so depending where you will park, you might get to walk around the campus. There also could be a flight of long stairs or just a flat walk towards the main entrance. Staff here are also really helpful and nice, and I'm sure they are the same for all the different shows they have here. Inside the auditorium, it reminds me of a large lecture hall: with those wooden, collapsable chairs...just felt like being in college again! Which was cool. The stage and its lighting system is amazing and the stage will be lit up just perfectly for any show. I really enjoy coming here and who knows, maybe I'll come back for another show!

Now known as Landis Performing Arts Center…read more I was impressed by the campus at RCC and enjoyed the complementary shuttle from the parking lot to the theater in an open-air cart. The Theater is large with 1500 seats and a professional stage that I hear is about to get some major upgrades. It's obvious that a lot of effort has gone into making this storied stage something special. Simple concessions from a local club from campus were nice and just the right price. Tickets for into the woods was just $16.00 with a $5 discount for advanced purchase, an amazing bargain! Into The woods was fantastic, clever, and massively entertaining with a superb cast. The Sets and lighting crossed between professional and campy, just perfect for such a fun show.

I wasn't sure what to expect and actually thought the venue would be smaller. The theater is located in the Corona civic center close to the police station and city hall. There are plenty of parking in on the streets and also int he civic center. You can park there on weekends which is a plus. The cast is so talented and range from ages 8 to 18 all from local schools in the area. The set design was amazing and transported you to the slums of NY in 1899. Costumes and makeup were a hit, too. I thought that adults were also in the play but it was just make-up. The transformations of these kids was pretty cool to see. The singing and dancing was perfection too. You can tell these kids worked hard to put on a production like that. BRAVO! Inside the theater, they sell merchandise for each play and also snacks to enjoy during intermission. You can also buy grams to send to your favorite star in the show which I thought was pretty cool. Everyone working the concessions and doors were great. everyone was so friendly and welcoming to their space. They are having another show in July, Moana Jr. which I really want to go see. it will be my personal birthday gift for myself. Till next time CAT! NOTE: Make sure to bring a sweater even on a hot day. The theater gets really cold inside especially in the back corners.

After the performances, our guests were able to take fun pictures with the dancers as a great remembrance. I found their price to be very reasonable, considering other places normally charge almost twice as much.

Today, as I was preparing old VHS tapes to be transferred to DVD's and the Cloud, I came across…read moreseveral years of tapes of the years my daughter, Katrina was at this school. I loved this business, the owners and the people. It was a great time in my life to have known all of these people involved. Including all the volunteers. I know I treasure the memories as does my daughter and I can't speak highly enough of the owners. I only have 1 regret and that was not staying in touch with those I met there. I say that, because after the 2nd year of my daughter being there, I told DeAn that back in the day, l believe around 4th grade, I took tap lessons. I stuck my foot in my mouth by telling DeAn at the close of one of the recitals, that if I ever put my tap shoes back on again, I'd dance circles around her. I should have never said that. DeAn, took me up on that and pressured me into the adult class the following season. So, I did it. And I had a blast working on the routine from Sept. thru June preparing myself to perform. We had such a great class. All parents of children who were signed up for classes as well. We were all great "hoofers" and we did a bang up job during our recital. I actually watched the tape of myself today and it just brought back so many good memories. It's been 18 years since I was on that stage tapping to a song called, "Song and Dance Man". There was 9 of us on that stage. So, if any of you just happen to come across this post and read this, reach out to me on facebook. I'd love to hear from you after all these years. Looking back, I couldn't have found a better dance studio to sign my daughter up for. One of those lucky times in my life. I was also glad to see that the old VHS tape was actually still in good condition. Ray Trosper

Although some of the teachers were strict, they built a strong foundation with my dancing and listening skills. I'm stronger as a dancer today in stamina and confidence because of Linda and De-An. I truly wish I could thank them today for how much I've grown as a dancer because of them. I took classes 5 days a week and trained on weekends accordingly to schedule for Talent Troupe ( the competition team) . They offered so many different types of classes with many different levels. If you were serious about dancing and growing as a student, then training that many days a week was necessary. Each of their recitals had amazing story lines and each class had individual costumes to go with the routine. The teachers and especially studio owners always worked so hard to make every detail perfect, from routine to show, and the finishing product never ceased to amaze me or many families and friends! De-Ans Jump Dance & Performing Arts Center was a true place of growth for any young dancer who was willing to work for it and I wish it was still up and running today.

When we were planning for our lil girls first birthday party , we must have an entertainment worth their drive besides our lil girl. I called Pacific Island Dancers and the booking was very easy and affordable. During the 30 mins performance, they danced and wear different costumes related to the country and culture of the music. They wear very fun and colorful costumes that our guests enjoyed. They even had "You're Welcome" singalong for the dads. In addition, they have dance lessons for kids and adults. It was fun and easy to perform! (See pictures below). The 30 mins performance that I paid actually lasted more than 45 mins. Totally worth it. My guests thought I paid triple than what I paid for (They thought I was rich! Heheheheh) and they complimented my party as grand because of the performances. One of my best friend book with them a week after for her baby girl's (Manny Pacquiao's goddaughter) second birthday. If you you will book with them, make sure to provide a huge mat or space not hot to dance. Also, a close big bathroom or room for them to change. By the way, I attended their dance class the next day !
