Enriching lives through dance
The students have been training so hard at BalletNova’s Intensive Diamond Workshop with Shu-Chen this summer. Shu-Chen choreographed a contemporary ballet called ‘Time Forgotten’. The dancers did such a beautiful job at yesterday performance. We are all so proud of them!
Here is GDC dancer Kaitlin talked about her experience dancing together with Therese in ‘Dear Mr. Cooper’. Thank you, CityDance for ‘Tumblring’. 😉
Do you own businesses or know someone who does (or who work for employers that may be interested)? We are currently accepting sponsors interested in appearing in our program for our (GDC’s) upcoming event ‘A Night With Gin’ … Please email Gary at gary@gindance.com for more info! Hurry… Deadline approaching!
GDC will be presenting ‘A Night with Gin’ on September 14, 2012 at the CenterStage at the Reston Community Center Hunters Woods. This special evening will premier GDC’s newest work ‘The Teller’, a compelling piece that will leave you pondering fate and destiny in an exploration of who’s truly in control of your future and ‘Unchain’, a breaking away and release of the past, something we all must struggle to do at different points in our lives. This performance will also feature GDC’s award nominating works, ‘The Core’ and ‘Dear Mr. Cooper’. “Also, we are so happy to have Surae Chinn, award winning reporter with WUSA9 as the event emcee. Surae will lead a post production/behind the scenes discussion panel with the Artists and Artistic Director/Choreographer Shu-Chen Cuff”, says GDC Executive Director, Gary Cuff. Mr. Cuff continues, “Take a ride with us for the night. We hope to leave the audience feeling that they’ve seen something truly meaningful and deliver the message of the importance of finding one’s true purpose in life”. Tickets are on sale now!!
