EAST BREMERTON ­— “Winter’s Tale,” presented by Northwest School of Dance, offers families something new in the way of a holiday dance experience.

This production, featuring a cast of roughly 40 performers, features everything you’d expect from a holiday production — beautiful costumes, classical ballet, (as well as tap, lyrical and contemporary), entertaining story lines set to captivating music, and falling snow in the final scene.

“Winter’s Tale,” by dance studio owners Stephanie Clarke and Jennifer Picart-Branner, is loosely based on  “A Christmas Carol” with a bit of “The 12 Days of Christmas” added in Act 2.  The story follows the show’s main character, Eloisa, on a journey of discovery, to learn the true joy of the season.

“Winter’s Tale” will be presented at the Bremerton Community Theatre, 599 Lebo Blvd., Dec. 14 at 7 p.m., and Dec. 15 at 2 and 7 p.m.  Tickets: Call (360) 509-7468, or purchase at the door. Online: www.nwschoolofdance.com.
