Dance Diversity Success
Posted on Monday 1 June 2009
Bursting with talent, College dancers display remarkable range of dance genres.
Hip Hop and drop of Pas de Bourre
With a pinch of Hip, Hop and a drop of Pas de Bourre the College Dance Show ‘Diversity’ leapt into the Prospect Theatre on the 21st May with tremendous funk, poise and technique.
The show featured a collection of examination work from AS and A2 dance students and also work by the Dance Leadership Award students and the college Hip- Hop group (big respect!). All the pieces were choreographed by the students themselves, some based on intriguing and challenging stimuli such as ‘In someone else’s shoes’ and ‘Isaac Newton’s second law of motion’.
These pieces were all effortlessly brought together into a performance by Dance Tutors Sally Allsford, Emily Burke and Royal Academy of Dance PGCE trainee, Katie Bamforth, supported brilliantly by Stage Manager, Nicola Hayles. Theatre technician Martin Duffy created everything from moody lighting to a good old fashioned disco.
Bursting with talent throughout, the show was thoroughly enjoyed by the full theatre.
