Our Story
Our first Spring Production was held at what was formerly known as Southern Polytechnic State University in March 2003 in the Joe Mack Wilson Theater. We were excited to have approximately 42 participants! This year, we'll likely have our BIGGEST Spring Production to date with well over 225 participants! Not only is the message of NO PLACE LIKE HOME, written and produced by Danese Turner, a relevant, dramatic story for RIGHT NOW, but we are also excited to celebrate a reunion of our Steppers and the 25th Anniversary of Angelic Dance Ministry with current and alumni members! Our cast of actors, infused with our dance, mime, step, flags, pageantry, and African drum ministries never fail to deliver a powerful show in excellence to the glory of God!

Spring Production Focus Scripture
We don't just move, we have a mandate to deliver a message. And our message is based on scripture. The focus scripture that we would like all participants to commit to memory for No Place Like Home is Psalm 68:5-6, which reads as follows: “Father to the fatherless, defender of widows— this is God, whose dwelling is holy. 6God places the lonely in families; he sets the prisoners free and gives them joy. But he makes the rebellious live in a sun-scorched land.”
