With a heavy heart and tearful eyes, I’m sharing that The Dance Factory will not reopen this fall.

After 24 wonderful years, we are closing our doors.

 

Since Covid, enrollment never quite bounced back. I’ve tried everything—hoping, reworking, waiting for that “better year”

—but the numbers just won’t sustain us anymore.

 

This is not how I imagined it would end. I’ll miss the tap shoes, the recital banners, the laughter, and most of all

—the dancers and families who made this place magic.

 

But I am so grateful.

For every child who danced through our doors.

For every parent, grandparent, and teacher who showed up.

For every instructor who poured their heart into our studio.

For a community that believed in a 22-year-old girl with big dreams.

 

The Dance Factory was more than a business. It was my second home, and my greatest joy.

 

Thank you, North Platte.

Thank you, families.

Thank you, dancers.

I will never forget what we created together. 💜

 

With love and deep gratitude,

Miss Becky
