Hope College Dance presents: IDT

Friday January 25 - Saturday January 26, 2008

IDT, Michigan’s only professional tap and jazz company, will present its annual concert at Hope College on Friday and Saturday, Jan. 25 and 26, at 8 p.m. at the Knickerbocker Theatre in downtown Holland.

IDT, formerly InSync Dance Theatre, is an affiliate of the department of dance at Hope. The company is led by artistic directors Rosanne Barton-DeVries and Ray Tadio of the Hope dance faculty. The performance will feature a variety of works created by Barton-DeVries, Tadio and other artists.

One of the pieces being premiered, “Bodytalk,” was created especially for IDT by Japanese choreographer Hiroko Maeda. “Bodytalk” was created as a testament of the power of movement expression. After a major career-threatening injury, Maeda reaffirmed her love for dance by choreographing the piece. The work was made possible through grants from the college’s Patrons for the Arts and Cultural Affairs.

One of Tadio’s pieces, “Skeehduhdup,” is a jazz work inspired by the high-rolling image of Las Vegas. With its use of props depicting a gambling venue, the first section of the piece goes over the top in its presentation of male and female stereotypes, while the second section is purely fun jazz dancing.

Tadio’s second piece, “Kiss,” set to the music of Prince, displays moves and partnering from a duet who are in the pursuit of a simple kiss.

Tickets are $7 for regular admission and $5 for senior citizens and students, and will be available at the door.

This event is organized by: Hope College Dance Department
