Center Dance Ensemble delivers a powerful experience as performers find the exquisite connection between movement and words in American Voices. There will be two performances in Herberger Theater Center’s Kax Theatre on Saturday, April 22, at 2 & 5 pm. There will also be Lunch Time performances at 12 noon on Wednesday and Thursday, April 18 & 19. Held in celebration of National Poetry Month, American Voices features works inspired by American poets and choreographed by Center Dance Ensemble dancers.  The performances also include works by Dance Theater West’s Storybook Dance Theater and readings by finalists from the Poetry Out Loud regional competition, the national recitation contest for high-school poets.
