Learned the dance fairly fast, but I had to leave early so, didn't get to finish the rest of the routine. However, I really liked how professional Roxanne was and also she was safe by giving us a warm up before we started to learn the dance routine. Highly recommend if you want to do a dance party with your friends! Lots of talented dancers at this studio!

Apparently one of the perks of being a student is she can get two free tickets to any performance at the OCCC Performing Arts Center. When she told me she wanted to go see Wizard of Oz on ice, I said "You know what? Heck yeah!" I love L. Frank Baum's original classic and while the story on ice took some liberties with the story (certainly an interesting interpretation) some parts of the original story were enacted as they were in the book. I was so blown away by the talent, the costumes etc that what really blew my mind was that these are not theater students at OCCC. These were professional performers that travel around and OCCC contracts them for a show. Tickets typically start around $30 and are free for students. That is just such a nice perk! I also have to mention that this center is state of the art. The seats we had were great (we expected nose bleeds and that was not the case) the lighting was top notch, the bathrooms were clean and orderly, the staff was professional and welcoming, the facility is maintained well. I have to come back to see something else, I believe in March they will be having a Pink Floyd laser show.

Opening Weekend Philharmonic Concert at our new Scissortail Park (Sept 2019) proved the high…read morequality and grand competence of our Oklahoma City Philharmonic. Bravo! As I sat on the new lawn, only 100 feet from the new stage and 200 feet from where my mother was born in my grandparents first home in the old city center Czech neighborhood, I admired the clarity, excellent precision, and beautiful sound of the Czech musical program: the Slavonic Dance of Antonin Dvořak, and later the incredibly rich tone poem "Vltava" from Ma Vlast by Bedřich Smetana, lifted me to join their spirits. Our Czech family heritage lives, and Oklahoma City has a jewel it should appreciate more in this Oklahoma City Philharmonic. Maestro Mickelthwaite added his quirky and entertaining leadership and kindly noted that we, the audience, were all sitting on the very heart of the original 1890s Oklahoma City (remember, it was only 3 square miles back then, not the 600 square miles we suffer from today!) And he pointed outward to the west side of the park where the old historic Czech Hall is still standing, ready for the opening of its Beer Garden, and a new program of music for our city and lots of Polka Dancing for our children (ages 2 to 102). And it is the wealth of musical talent and experience from these members of the Oklahoma Philharmonic who will contribute to that new music venue at the Czech Hall of Oklahoma City, Lodge Laska.

In thinking about the symphony, I can't help but to wonder about my ancestors…read more.. Under the Habsburg dynasty in Vienna, my old family contributed to the fabric of the city for centuries. While Mozart composed works of unrivaled and unprecedented beauty-- the likes of "Symphony No. 25," "Lacrimosa," and "Dies Irae"-- and later Strauss, famed for his classic waltz piece, and likewise an ode to the city's famed Danube, my ancestors proudly called Vienna home. They watched the city rise to become the heart of culture in Europe, and they remained in the city until nearly a decade after World War II. Now, here I am in a place that is the polar opposite of Austria's esteemed capital. The Oklahoma City Philharmonic certainly leaves something to be desired. While anything "Oklahoma City (insert cultural venue here)" makes one want to pinch the city on the cheek and say, "oh, that's so cute!" it still leaves a cultural void and vacancy for the would-be attendee. Their schedule is quite sporadic and erratic, and performances are relatively far apart from each other. This is in contrast to the New York Philharmonic, where musicians perform frequently and almost year-round. Sadly, it seems that musicians in the Oklahoma City Philharmonic need to request a night off from their shifts at Starbucks to perform on the occasional night they do have a show. I do give it two stars for effort, and being a step or two above what one might expect: "A Night With Toby Keith: An Orchestral Experience of a Homegrown Maestro"...or "Blue Collar Opera: Featuring Larry the Cable Guy and Brett Butler in a duet of 'Libiamo ne'lieti calici', Bill Engvall singing "Habanera" and Jeff Foxworthy performing 'O mio babbino caro'." While it seems to have managed to stay around, this organization needs some improvement, but methinks the local market will not support an expansion.

They have very detailed instructions and helped point out what was done with certain signs already made on the walls This is definitely the perfect place for a group of friends, a birthday party for adults and older kiddos who can handle listening to and following instructions.
