Academy of Dance Arts Littlest Angel

Academy of Dance Arts Littlest Angel at Howard L. Schrott Center for the Arts

The littlest angel has no grand treasure to offer—only the keepsakes that mean the most. Littlest Angel brings that idea to the stage at the Howard L. Schrott Center for the Arts in Indianapolis, where Academy of Dance Arts presents the story on December 19 at 2:00 PM. It's an afternoon built around a simple question: what does a sincere gift really look like?

The story follows a young angel who longs for her earthly keepsakes. She gathers them in a small wooden box and offers it at the birth of Christ. Then comes the contrast. Her humble treasure stands beside far grander offerings, and the story asks which one matters most. It's a gentle, memorable idea, and it's told through dance, so the feeling lives in movement as much as in words. That makes it a warm choice for anyone who loves seeing a familiar holiday theme brought to life by a local academy.

The presenter also ties the chosen gift to the Star of Bethlehem, so the Christian Christmas theme is front and center. If your family wants a faith-centered outing during the season, this one is made for that. The production runs December 19 and 20, 2026, and the December 19 matinee is a natural fit for a holiday weekend plan. Bring someone who still believes small things can carry the biggest meaning. Then reserve your seats for Littlest Angel at the Schrott Center here.
