SUMMARY:DANCE DAY - Around the WORLD
DESCRIPTION:INTERNATIONAL DANCE DAY\nSince 1982*\, the world has been celebrating ‘dance’ on April 29th. It is an occasion for dance communities to plan events and invite the public to join them — in classes\, to watch performances\, and to be a part of the performance! \n “This day is a celebration day for those who can see the value and importance of the art form “dance”\, and acts as a wake-up-call for governments\, politicians and institutions which have not yet recognised its value to the people and to the individual and have not yet realised its potential for economic growth.”  -International Dance Day Organization (UNESCO International Theatre Institute) \nThe goals* of International Dance Day are: \n\n\n\nto promote dance in all its forms across the world\nto make people aware of the value of dance in all its forms\nto enable the dance community to promote their work on a broad scale\, so that governments and opinion leaders are aware of the value and importance of dance in all its forms and support it\nto enjoy dance in all its forms for its own sake\nto share the joy of dance with others\n\n\n\n*https://www.international-dance-day.org/ \nDance Magazine suggests these five ways to celebrate: \n\nHear from international choreographers about their process.\nCongratulate the Youth American Grand Prix winners.\nDance to give back.\nExperience a new culture.\nExpand your horizons.\n\nClick on the link above to read the entire article by Lauren Wingenroth\, 29 April 2016. \nPhoto: Ballet Arizona

SUMMARY:DancEstrella (Estrella Mtn CC) presents Visibility (Avondale)
DESCRIPTION:DANCESTRELLA PRESENTS Visibility\nESTRELLA MOUNTAIN COMMUNITY COLLEGE’S PERFORMING ARTS CENTER \nAPRIL 29 & 30 | 3 pm & 7 pm both days \nEstrella Mountain Community College’s student company\, DancEstrella\, will present four performances of Visibility. This program features practicum dances (final projects by dance majors) by Deckontee Lowery and Assistant Director\, Denise Lopez; collaborative choreography by students in dance performance classes\, and a full company work by Artistic Director and faculty member Janaea Lyn McAlee. Two student choreographers from Buckeye Union High School District dance programs will also participate in this DancEstrella production. \nPresented by the Arts and Composition Division\, performances will take place at the EMCC Performing Arts Center (PAC) on Friday\, April 29 and Saturday\, April 30\, 2022\, with shows at 3 & 7 pm both days. General admission is free and audience members will have the opportunity to participate in a Q & A session with the dancers at the end of each show. Seating is limited and masks are encouraged. \nThe dances choreographed for Visibility are based on the students’ sense of personal identity and how that can contrast with the ways we are perceived by others. Professor McAlee explains “The quote we selected for the show is by Rumi\, ‘I differ a hundred ways from what you see me to be.’ The dances interpret different aspects of this idea. We can be intentional when we project a certain side of ourselves\, or conversely\, mask our true feelings.  Prejudice and stereotypes can also impact how and in which ways we feel seen or invisible.” \nThe practicum dances include I’ll Rise Up by Deckontee (Dee) Lowery. Dee was halfway through her final semester when the Covid-19 shutdown occurred two years ago. She returns to DancEstrella to finally present and perform in this work with three other graduating dance majors. I’ll Rise Up portrays her efforts to overcome many obstacles on her educational journey. With support from the college community\, she will finally graduate this May. The song Dee had selected\, Rise Up by Andra Day\, became a public of anthem for dealing with pandemic induced stress\, something she feels now adds to her dance in an even more poignant fashion. \nCurrently serving as Assistant Director for DancEstrella\, Denise Lopez\, will also present a quartet for her practicum project. Rhamnousia is a Greek name  for the goddess Nemesis. Denise described her intention this way\, “we live in a world where we are constantly moving like robots\, whether it’s physically or mentally. So\, we forget there are others living among us\, or can make assumptions about them too quickly. Once you do an act of kindness for a stranger\, the experience of joy found in a simple human connection can be transformative for both people.” \nGraduating dance majors\, Carissa Salgado-Garcia and Jade Teller\, joined the dance program before the pandemic and forged a strong bond during their time at EMCC. They will present a duet that celebrates their friendship as that special relationship with someone with whom you feel known and valued for who you fully are. \nNow You Don’t\, Now You See Me\, was inspired by the James Baldwin quote “‘Love takes off masks that we fear we cannot live without and know we cannot live within\,” Choreographed for the full company by Director McAlee\, she explains “I am interested in how what we conceal and what we reveal seems tied to how we have been wounded by the people in our lives. The defenses that we erect to protect ourselves ultimately becomes their own prison and it is through the support and care of others that we begin to let them to fall away.” \nOther dances choreographed and performed by the students in EMCC dance performance classes are collaborative reflections on the ways people choose to present themselves; the assumptions others make about us; and learning when\, how and with whom to disclose and/or hide aspects of their identity. For the first time\, student choreographers from Buckeye Union High School District dance programs will present their work as well. An outgrowth of the annual EMCC Dance Day\, this community connection provides high school choreographers with the opportunity to perform as part of a pre-professional college company and bring their dances to a larger audience. \nEstrella Mountain Community College offers an Associate of Fine Arts\, Emphasis in Dance degree and all dance classes\, including participation in DancEstrella\, are open to all EMCC students. \nVisibility Show Information: ude.niatnuomallertsenull@stnevE \nDance Program Information: Janaea Lyn McAlee\, Residential Dance Faculty | ude.niatnuomallertsenull@ecnad \nDancer: Denise Lopez | Photo by Linda Keyes

SUMMARY:Tap 24.7 presents TapSide Story (Mesa)
DESCRIPTION:Tap 24.7 presents TapSide Story\nSunday\, May 29th\, 12 & 4 pm \nMesa Community College Performing Arts Center\, 1520 S Longmore\, Mesa \nTap 24.7 has created another original all-tap show featuring some of the most talented tap dancers of all ages from across the country. This story was inspired by tap dancers and how they interpret rhythms — by counting or scatting. \nWe are transported to a town called TapSide where two gangs of rhythm — THE COUNTS and THE SCATS — both feel like their way of interpreting tap steps is the right way. An opportunity to be in a new tap show has presented itself but the Counts and the Scats find themselves in a position where they must work together. Foes becoming friends. Collaborations that seemed absurd before are forming. How can that be? Scats were scats and counts were counts. But — can they help one another? Can they find that love\, that common ground that they share; and realize that their true passion\, despite their differences\, is the same? \nCome and find out! Tickets $25-35 + service fee. \nDIRECTOR AND CREATOR: Suzy Guarino-Hall \nCHOREOGRAPHERS: Suzy Guarino-Hall\, Kiana Guarino\, Kelsey Young\, Brendan Kellam\, Sarah Boice\, Jeffrey Bird\, Charlie DuHadway\, Chrissy Jones\, Rachel LiPuma\, Adi Beeler\, Emma Matthies\, and Jenefer Miller \nMAIN CHARACTERS: Suzy Guarino-Hall (Anda One)\, Kelsey Young (A-A)\, Jeffrey Bird (One-An-Two)\, Tyler Russell (Two-E-Anda)\, Rachel LiPuma (Seven)\, Chrissy Jones (Three-Anda-Four)\, Brendan Kellam (Gada Boom)\, Emma Matthies (Bagaka)\, Charlie DuHadway (Shloomp)\, Ian Dodd (Diddley Bop)\, Sarah Boice (Shooby Do Wop)\, Adi Beeler (Scoo Da’Dip)\, and Kiana Guarino (Bop Zip Bam) \nAlso featuring dancers ages 8-adult from Arizona and several states across the country. \n  \n
