We Are Doing Dance Differently!

We believe everyone can Be More at Stage Door, which is why we are constantly rethinking systemic and industry standards, some of which are outdated, toxic, and counterintuitive to cultivating a culture of belonging.

By standing strong in our positioning that dance is an art form for all, we are listening and learning about how we can best achieve our mission.

Join us for Recitalpalooza!

Recitalpalooza 2025, our festival-style, open-air performance event will be held the weekend of June 6th-8th, 2025. Stay tuned for more details!

Drama Club at SDD

Theatre teaches many of the same tools and skills as dance. When you combine the two, the possibilities are endless. This fall, Drama Club at SDD will bring the best of both worlds to your child that loves to perform!

Why Stage Door?

Stage Door Dance Productions is reinventing the dance education model right here in Raleigh, NC. Using a whole child approach, we believe that dance and the performing arts have the power to bring everyone joy through a sense of belonging. With age-appropriate instruction and choreography, the studio uses technique, performance, community, and character to encourage dancers to "Be More At Stage Door!"

  • to execute classical and contemporary performing arts technique

  • to create, share, and perform with others

  • to connect with those around us in a positive, uplifting way

  • to use lessons from the studios to improve our path in life, personally and professionally
