Join us as we welcome Small Planet Dancers performing “The Greatest Generation: A Tribute to the Heroes of World War II.” This free program will be presented on Monday, November 23, 2026 at 6:00. Small Planet Dancers is a performance group from Westfield. The troupe is composed of 15 men and women and is under the direction of Josephine Sarnelli, Artistic Director and choreographer.
The 90-minute program commemorates the history of the war through dance routines set to Big Band music and performed in authentic military and 1940’s dress. Included are readings about the Tuskegee Airmen, the Navajo Code Talkers and the 442nd Infantry. Familiar songs of the era are sung and accompanied on piano. Whether it is the Chattanooga Choo Choo, Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy or In the Mood, this show will be a foot-tapper for sure! Come enjoy this show as we continue to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the United States.
