Tonight is the opening night of Architectural Synapsis, Valley Christian’s spring dance show! The production is directed by Michelle McLaughlin and Natalie Quilici. They Valley Christian Dance Art teachers.This is their first year in the program and their second show at Valley Christian. There is a total of forty-three dancers in the show which is unbelievable low compared to prior spring shows which have included the entire department. Hopefully these dancers have the stamina to make it through all the quick changes and back-to-back performances. This dance production encompasses a variety of dance styles: jazz, tap, ballet, character, hip hop, and contemporary. The dance department partnered with choreographers from all over the Bay to bring fresh, new choreography to Valley Christian. There is a total of six dances choreographed by these talented guests and two dances choreographed by the show directors. Many of the choreographers worked with Valley’s academic department heads to incorporate other fields of interest to inspire choreography. The show will also include performances by Anja Kotar and Kiera Richardson from the musical theater department. Anja will sing an absolutely breath takingly powerful vocal solo that will bring down the house and Kiera will inspire audiences with an encouraging and humorous monologue. Vivid Dance Company will also be performing in the show to give a snapshot of what they have been working so hard on this season. They will be performing five out of their six competition dances which were also all choreographed by a variety of guest choreographers. These dances have been performed at three competitions and all the way in Florida for dance nationals. This show stands as the grand finale for Vivid Dance Company’s 2013-2014 season. But do not worry Vivid fans, tryouts for the upcoming season will take place Friday, May 2nd so they can begin preparing for the 2014-2015 performance season as soon as possible. All experienced dancers are welcome to tryout for this upcoming season! (For questions regarding tryouts, contact Mrs. Evans at cevans@vcs.net)
