DORRANCE DANCE

MacArthur Fellow Michelle Dorrance is “the most exciting and original choreographer in tap today" (New York Times). She honors tap dance’s unique American tradition while pushing the form rhythmically, aesthetically, and conceptually. The company performs excerpts from SOUNDspace and other works to explore what is most thrilling, brilliant, and beautiful about tap dancing—movement as music.
