Event Description

Blue Lapis Light's Student Showcase features aerial dance works created for and by students.  We are elated to present our students at the Boyd Vance Theater in the Carver Museum FridaySaturday, December 12 & 13, 8pm.

This performance is an incredible culmination of enthusiasm for aerial dance.  We present as many as 15 pieces, ranging from funny to fierce, witty to whimsical.  Students and staff collaborate in creating dances to express the many moods and facets of aerial performance.  The final program includes original student works, faculty choreography, and collaborative class choreography.

Students prepare for 6-8 weeks, debuting their performances at an Informal Student Showcase.  After the Informal Showcase, students move to the Carver for a week, where we rehearse in the theater with lights and production.  Come showtime, students astound us again and again with their daring and soulful performances.  We are excited to include the work of our exceptional Youth Taking Flight (YTF) students in this special showcase. YTF is Blue Lapis Light's semester long outreach program, focusing on aerial creation with local underserved youth. We hope you can join us for this spectacular event!
