Take-Off with Uptown Dance! Celebrating the 25th Anniversary Season, featuring 3 new premiers including founder and artistic director Beth Gulledge-Brown, Resident Choreographer Andre Silva and UDC long time friend and colleague Leonard Lopez.
Shimmer, evokes a feeling of quiet beauty, a radiant glow that is gentle and fleeting, often associated with something magical or ethereal. Music by Elena Ruehr, Boston Modern Orquestra Project and Gil Rose
Ces't La Vie, new work by founder and artistic director Beth Gulledge-Brown inspired by her trip to France, the piece is about friendships, love and life.
My Teenage Crush – 1999, paying homage to the “Rom-Com’s” of the 80’s like Pretty In Pink, Say Anything and Sixteen Candles, this is a story of two high school seniors Candice and Terrence making their way through life. Candice is cheerlead-ing captain, prom queen and valedictorian. She has everything going for her but she is in love with Terrence, a boy from the wrong side of the tracks. They both love each other very much but when graduation nears Terrence comes to the realization that he is holding Candice back. So, he selflessly breaks up with her so she has no reason to stay in the small town they grew up in and attend the college of her dreams. In the end, they both come to terms with their feelings and realize sometimes in order to reach your full potential you have to make sacrifices. They learn that if you can see your self worth, the sky’s the limit.
This story is set to Billboard’s biggest hits of 1999, the year Uptown Dance Company was opened. So let’s take a stroll down memory lane as we celebrate 25 years of exceptional dance.
I want to thank my dear friend Beth Gulledge Brown, for so many great memories. May you have continued success.
