Celebrate the magic of the season through dance, music, and spoken word as Cleo Parker Robinson Dance explores holiday traditions from around the world!  Granny Dances to a Holiday Drum – the 33rd Anniversary presentation of this Denver family favorite will have you dancing in your seat! 

Guided by the Three Angels of the Rainbow, Granny visits Africa, the Americas, Mexico, Asia, and the Caribbean to celebrate the joy of Holiday Times!  From the African Harvest to Kwanzaa, from the Chinese New Year to Junkanoo…. a celebration of both diversity and oneness!    

A Denver family tradition for over three decades, this incredible blend of dance, music, and spoken word lifts the spirit and fills the heart with joy, love, and peace!  In 2024, Granny returns with 10 live performances!

The 130-minute performance at the Cleo Parker Robinson Dance Theatre features Cleo Parker Robinson as Shakti, Chloé-Grant Abel as Cantadora and Cedric Hall as the Griot. Margarita Taylor returns as Granny in this Annual holiday season performance.

Tickets range from $35 to $45.
