Thursday, March 6th (B-day) 2014 at Kingsbury Hall in SLC
The company is renowned for its distinct
blend of classical ballet and African American cultural influences. The
repertoire reflects the energy, direction, and vitality of American dance from
Petipa to Balanchine and Byrd.
Reminder of the all day school excused field trip THIS FRIDAY!
You must have turned in your signed permission form and your paid receipt in order to attend.
Since you are taking 2 dance classes, one of them can count towards participation make-up work. You will also be attending an informal performance, which can count as a concert report, since it is college-level.
Make sure you read your permission form with all the details for when to meet the bus (7:15 AM), what to bring (clothes and lunch), etc.
Look forward to going on this fun filled day-of-dance with you on Friday! Let's represent Lone Peak!
