Match Girls

We are so proud of this dance. Ms Trai and Ms.Victoria choreographed the dance together and the girls danced it beautifully every single time. It isn't just about the dancing, though. It is such a powerful story of what women (girls actually) can do when they stand together. I would love for this history of the Match Girls to be just as popular as Newsies is.
