ALL PERFORMANCES TAKE PLACE AT
Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts
3680 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA 19104
Performances are an hour long and include a complimentary Study Guide and a special "Talk Back Session" with the artists.
This season's program features six sensational dance companies from Australia, Brazil, Canada, Israel and the United States. Expose your students to the beauty and magic of dance that crosses cultures and genres while addressing curriculum standards!
Dance, a celebration of life, culture, tradition, socialization, and communication, embraces music, art, theater, and technology. Students will discover how dance emulates life through its problem solving, teamwork, and critical thinking approaches.
Young audiences will be transported to new worlds of the imagination and wowed by the skills, talent and physical conditioning of these world-class dancer/athletes/illusionists. Teachers will be amazed how easy it is to incorporate elements into their curriculum since dance addresses laws of motion, physics, mathematics, history, life skills, language arts, and cultural studies.
