Alpha Omega Theatrical Dance Company Concert Season
**** THIS IS AN EVENT FROM 2010 TO SEE CURRENT EVENTS FOR THE ALPHA OMEGA THEATRICAL DANCE COMPANY - FOLLOW THIS LINK ****
Alpha Omega Theatrical Dance Company celebrates its 38th concert season at MMAC with a program that will move you, groove you, touch and delight you.
The program features the premiere of artistic director and choreographer, Enrique Cruz DeJesus' "Crossroads to Hathaway" featuring the songs of the rhythm and blues singer/songwriter Donny Hathaway. His chart topping musical arrangements and intimate concert performances were unique to his personal experiences and resonated with wide audiences. This new work includes storytelling elements that highlight the times of the music's origin of the 1960's and 70's and its relevance today. The live music is performed by the elegantly funky, R&B, jazz sounds of Ty Stephens and SoulJaazz.
The program also features Cruz DeJesus' "Evolution", a playful take on the Big Bang Theory danced to Tito Puente's big band sounds of the 1950's, Martial Roumain's "Elegy", that symbolizes the passing of a loved one, and Eleo Pomare's "Raft", the poignant work that depicts Haitians caught in a stormy sea that stands between the life left behind and a hoped for life ahead.
All performances begin at 8PM; opening night includes a post-performance reception to meet the artists.
Join us for an electrifying evening of dance!
