DORRANCE DANCE presents SOUNDSPACE

 

DORRANCE DANCE

SOUNDSPACE

APRIL 2, 2022

Centennial Hall

Start Time: 8:00PM

…A SONIC DISTILLATION OF A BLISTERING AMERICAN PAST AND ITS PERILOUS PRESENT, WITH A TRANSCENDENT STRENGTH OF SPIRIT WOVEN THROUGH.

-THE WASHINGTON POST

 

With 10 tap dancers and one acoustic bass player, Michelle Dorrance’s SOUNDspace strips tap dance down to its most raw basics—movement as pure music. SOUNDspace invites the audience to experience tap dancing with a fresh pair of eyes and ears, with both an acknowledgment towards the past and a look into the future. 

Dorrance Dance is an award-winning tap dance company based in New York City. The company’s work aims to honor tap dance’s uniquely beautiful history in a new, dynamic, and compelling context not by stripping the form of its tradition, but by pushing it rhythmically, aesthetically, and conceptually. The company’s inaugural performance garnered a Bessie Award for “blasting open out notions of tap,” and continues its passionate commitment to expanding the audience of tap dance. Street, club, and experimental dance forms – all of which are American dreams – awake to the sound of furious rhythms and find their boundaries missing.
