Our Mission

Minnesota PerformDance Productions (MPP) is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to
presenting unique productions with a special interest in dance and music to enrich the community.  
We are dedicated to engaging and developing performing artists and production staff through
performance opportunities.  We are committed to giving back to the community by providing access
to presentations to audiences of all backgrounds through educational outreach and volunteerism.

To reach out to the Twin Cities community, we are providing free tickets to
All Wrapped Up - A KXMS
Christmas
to the 1st Brigade Combat Team of 34th Infantry Division of Minnesota National Guard
and the
Food Allergy Support Group of Minnesota.  In 2006, we worked with Project SUCCESS, an
organization that serves Minneapolis and St. Paul middle & high school students.  We gave
students and their families the opportunity to attend the 2006 debut of
All Wrapped Up at no cost.  

MPP operates The Starettes, as well as the ballroom dance ensemble, Minnesota PerformDance.  
Both dance ensembles are available for performances at various events.  Also, if you’d like to be a
part of helping the growth of our organization consider a tax deductible donation to MPP.  Business
and patron participation, through donations and volunteering, is essential to our growth in the
community.  For more information about performance opportunities, donations and volunteering,
call 612-240-5042 or e-mail
