We are BACK!! Hello 2013!!

Happy New Year!!  We hope you all had wonderful holidays and are excited about 2013 … We are!

Looking back, 2012 was an amazing and exciting year for Gin Dance Company.  We created several new original works including “Simply Bach”, “The Core”, “Dejavu”, and “Just Because”.

We had the privilege and pleasure of performing for audiences throughout the area including participation at the BalletNova Center for Dance Concerts, Reston Multicultural Festival, Fairfax County Dance Coalition’s Gala Performance, the American Diabetes Association’s ‘Step Out – Walk to Stop Diabetes’.  We were also very proud to bring in a full house at our full evening production of GDC’s “Deep eMotion”.

We are currently hard at work in the Studio creating more new pieces that we hope will inspire, thrill, and uplift audiences in 2013.  We thank you for your support and look forward to seeing you at the theater!

Wish You All a Warm and Joyful Thanksgiving!!

At GDC, we are giving thanks to our friends and family for your love and supper and to our amazing artists.
