Dancers’ Workshop presents their most innovative and intimate performance by Contemporary Dance Wyoming, Up Close, this Thursday and Friday, June 29th and 30th. For tickets and more information, click here.
A show not to be missed! We’ve compiled 8 compelling reasons why you should see Up Close:
1. For the Experience – This show is all about the experience – seated right on the stage, audience members are entranced, almost as though they are a part of the dance. Witness firsthand the dancers’ athleticism and energy up close and personal.
2. Won’t cramp your style – Busy evening planned? No worries. Up Close doesn’t start until 8p so there’s plenty of time for you to squeeze in that afternoon workout sesh, run your errands or have dinner with friends.
3. See these athletes in action – The professional dancers of Contemporary Dance Wyoming spend hours and hours each day training, dancing and exercising. These stunning athletes will wow even the Lunch Counter surfer or backcountry rider.
4. Expand your horizons – Not all dance is tutus and plies. If ballet isn’t your thing, don’t simply write off dance. If you like culture, beauty and storytelling, you just may find a new passion for modern dance. Modern dance can be funny, sexy, raw, polished, mysterious, and even relatable, it is completely up for your interpretation.
5. Inspiration – Immerse yourself in the creativity and influence that dance can inspire. We live in a beautiful place full of talented artistic individuals. What will you create next?
6. You’ll love the playlist – With artists such as Joy Division, Johnny Cash, Lana Del Ray, and Olafur Arnalds echoing in the background the music is one thing in itself to come enjoy.
7. Impress your date – Bring a date and use your casual intellectualism to impress them – Caution: Not everyone likes a know-it-all but hey, you just might get “up close” after the show. 😉
8. Show some local pride and support your hometown, professional dancers with Contemporary Dance Wyoming! Our very own CDW is Wyoming’s only professional modern dance company.
