Walking on Sunshine performers strike their final pose; A Few of My Favourite Things performing ballerinas quell the butterflies in their tummies as they make their way backstage in a train formation; Eva Pennino watches the big girls dance from the theatre's wing; and, Emily Baxter performs in the 2 Legit 2 Quit Hip Hop number. The dance school, owned and directed by Laura Dacyshyn, saw nearly 400 students on stage in two days of shows at the Oakville Centre over the weekend. A portion of ticket sales will be donated to Kids Help Phone. PHOTOS BY NIKKI WESLEY / OAKVILLE BEAVER
