ANYTHING GOES!

Choreography by:
Derek Deane

Music by:
Cole Porter

 

The songs of legendary composer Cole Porter bring forth a range of emotions and wistful nostalgia recalling an era of Hollywood glamour that is a distant memory. With an elegance and finesse reminiscent of Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, this “De-lovely” production reflects the star-studded society of the 30s and 40s in grand ballroom style with high-stepping hits including “I’ve Got You Under My Skin” and “I Get a Kick Out of You.”

 

STRAIGHT LIFE

Choreography by:
Matjash Mrozewski

PBT rocks to the music of Bruce Springsteen! This contemporary production gleans a reckless renegade character from the classic songs by the music icon providing an undercurrent of melancholy in this series of duets and scenes from different lives. The choreography holds an inherent drama, allowing the audience to empathize both physically and emotionally with the characters as they journey through time and space.
