Tickets are listed at $15.50 through the Roswell Cultural Arts Center box office.

The venue is the Roswell Cultural Arts Center at 950 Forrest St. in Roswell. (atlantaparent.com 1) (atlantaparent.com 2) Roswell Performing Arts is part of the city’s recreation and parks dance programming, and its resident company is Roswell Dance Starz. The company says it operates as a pre-professional program focused on dance technique, performance quality and dance education. (roswelldancestarz.com) That setup helps explain why the spring recital functions as both a public performance and a showcase for local students’ training. A 2024 Roswell Performing Arts recital listing said the program included youth and adult dancers in ballet, tap, jazz, hip hop, musical theatre and contemporary. (roswell365.com) This year’s showcase lands in a busy April calendar for family events in metro Atlanta. Atlanta Parent included “Stars, Stripes & Spotlights” in both its April events roundup and its list of top theatre productions for the month.

For families planning around school and weekend schedules, the five Saturday time slots offer the widest choice. (roswellcac.showare.com)
