The Taylor 2 dance troupe arrives in Friday Harbor Sunday, April 2 for both a free master dance class for all ages (2:00 pm) and an evening performance (7:30 pm) at San Juan Community Theatre.
One of the “grandfathers” of American modern dance, choreographer Paul Taylor established Taylor 2 in 1993 to ensure that his works could be seen by audiences all over the world, unhindered by economic or technical limitations. Taylor 2 features six professionals with a particular gift for his style.
Tickets for the evening event are available online at www.sjctheatre.org or at the box office (378-3210). Space is limited for the free dance class; please sign up at the box office.
Taylor 2’s Friday Harbor appearance is partially funded through a grant from the Western States Arts Federation (WESTAF) and the National Endowment for the Arts.
“The performance was breathtakingly beautiful, we got numerous responses from patrons young and old about how inspired they were by the artistry, polished technique, and personal audience connection. The program had something for everyone –the balletic Aureole, then dramatic and angst ridden contemporary The Uncommitted, and the playful but poignant Company B. Wow!” ~ Heidi Ehle, Assistant Director, Mary B. Martin School of the Arts, East Tennessee University.
