COUNTDOWN UNTIL THE CONCERT…
In 2025, MAPA will be presenting two separate major end-of-year concerts. Alongside our beloved “Express Yourself” showcase, we are excited to introduce a dedicated Ballet Production titled Alice In The West: A Ballet Adventure.
This change allows us to provide more performance opportunities for our students, offer a storyline ballet experience for our ballet classes, and keep each event at a comfortable length for audiences. Separating the concerts also ensures we can accommodate more families in the theatre.
For full details about the Ballet Concert, please visit: mapa.com.au/balletconcert2025
Parents & Students can view all ‘Express Yourself’ concert details from this page.

CONCERT REHEARSAL MUSIC:
Below are the links to all the edited tracks for students to use while rehearsing at home during the week. Regular practice not only builds confidence and performance skills, but also strengthens the whole team on stage. We encourage you to support your child by watching their at-home “mini shows” — make it fun! Your encouragement helps boost their confidence and reminds them how rewarding it is to share their hard work with others.
