Paul Taylor Dance Company: Family Performance! October 9, 2010

Quite simply, Paul Taylor makes dances that people love. He has made some of the most astonishingly athletic and downright funniest dance pieces ever put on stage. This performance features his new work, Also Playing, a Vaudeville revue with acts ranging from an Apache dance to a tap-dancing horse and a toreador whose sissy bulls are frightened of her. The afternoon will also include a “chance to dance,” where children learn some of the company’s dance moves in a pre-concert hands-on — or shall we say feet-on? — workshop.
