Kupio, Finland


Join the decade’s most celebrated tap dance company Dorrance Dance for an ELECTRIC offering of tap dance and live music! This brand new program features the “glorious” Basses Loaded (2019) performed by four bassists and four tap dancers (with choreography for all); Myelination is an "exhilarating ensemble piece", in which each dancer is both an ensemble member and an improvisational soloist. Performers take risks and achieve new heights of technical and musical tapping.

*Basses Loaded has been commissioned by New York City Center. Support for new dance works at City Center is provided by the Virginia B. Toulmin Foundation and Doris Duke Charitable Foundation.

*Myelination has been commissioned, in part, by Cal Performances, UC Berkeley, Berkeley, California. Myelination (2017 and 2015) has also been commissioned by New York City Center for the Fall for Dance Festival with generous support from the Virginia B. Toulmin Foundation. Music for Myelination (2015) commissioned by the Charles and Joan Gross Family Foundation.
