Every little girl dreams of one day joining the cast of this premier Radio City dance team, known the world over for its precision kick-line, as each dancer in the line of 36 moves in sync to music at a breathtaking pace. For Winzer Cleaners, 2025’s holiday season marked a similar milestone for our firm. Our stage costume dry cleaning professionals partnered with this famous group to ensure their costumes were pristinely cleaned and maintained in exceptional condition, to shine and sparkle at every performance.
From November through December each year, this extraordinary troupe performs up to five shows daily, a grueling schedule for any dancer, but it also takes a toll on their costumes. In case you are wondering, during the 2025 Christmas Spectacular at Radio City Music Hall, each and every dancer (84 in all, with two casts appearing each day) performs eight or more costume changes per show. They wore these elaborate costumes throughout each 90-minute performance, and Winzer Cleaners was tasked with their daily costume dry cleaning chore, which involved pickup, mending, dry cleaning, and delivering each and every garment the dancers wore throughout the show’s holiday run.
84 Dancers x 8+ Costume Changes x 24 Hours = Another Challenge Met by Winzer Cleaners
This feat was all in a day’s work for Winzer Cleaners’ seasoned professionals. For decades, we have been the luxury dry cleaners of choice for discriminating New Yorkers, and we were honored to be asked to perform the costume dry cleaning task for the renowned stage troupe. Logistics were quickly established but did not deviate from our standard to closely assess and evaluate the condition of each and every costume we received, make any necessary repairs or replacements to sequins, findings such as zippers and hooks and eyes, and to determine the best cleaning method to ensure an optimal result. Our specialized team oversaw the careful cleaning process, then each garment was again scrutinized to ensure it was pristine and ready to be returned to Radio City. And we never missed, or were late for a “curtain up”!
It will come as no surprise to our loyal clients that Winzer Cleaners was chosen to perform (pun intended) this arduous task. We have served Manhattan families for generations with all your dry cleaning, tailoring, alterations, bridal, fur and leather maintenance, wardrobe storage, and other household needs. Stage costume dry cleaning notwithstanding, as Winzer Cleaners’ service excellence is now acknowledged by a world-renowned dance troupe, you know you can entrust your investment wardrobe, bespoke suiting, and couture gowns to our care as well.
