Each year, several advanced danced students from the Paseo Academy of Fine and Performing Arts are selected to rehearse and perform alongside Owen/Cox Dance Group’s professional dancers in the ensemble’s annual production of The Nutcracker and the Mouse King. This experience provides a rare and valuable experience for the student dancers and is often cited as the highlight of their student dance experience.

In-school rehearsals are funded in part by the Missouri Arts Council, a state agency. For information on how you can help sponsor a Paseo dance student please contact us at student_sponsor@owencoxdance.org.
