| DESCRIPTION: |
Program III features The Neighborhood Ballroom by Edward Villella. Back for its first full encore since its 2003 premiere, this is an evening-length, action-packed, atmosphere-drenched tale of a poet, his muses, and the great ballroom music and dances of the early and mid-20th century. The four sections of this work showcase the seductive waltz, quick-stepping jazz (including the Charleston), the fox-trot where couples dance in the dark to big-band music, and the mambo, which ruled the dance floor in the 1950s. Fri. and Sat. 8 p.m.; Sun. 2 p.m. |
