Spring Concert: Do You Remember?

Dalton Dance Company’s spring concert “Do You Remember?” will be held at the Dalton High School Theatre on March 26-28, 2010. This year’s high energy spring dance concert of hip-hop, jazz, modern, ballet, and tap techniques, inspirational music, and special technical effects will mix old and new choreography as we “remember” DDC’s first 5 years. We will also remember the different dance styles of the 50’s, the 60’s, Michael Jackson, disco dancing, and hip-hop, Through our “Dancing for a Cause” we will remember our worldwide community and especially the people of Haiti. Choreographers include Las Vegas based hip hop choreographer, Dustin Phillips, Marcus Alford, Marla McClure Thomas, Lori Beth Edgeman, Jo Beth Thompson, Berrien Long, Ryann Payne, Bettye Jo Wilson, and student choreographers Lynsey King, Katie Beth Jewell, Sarah Whitney Anderson, Susannah Tighe, and Lauren Hooie.
Ticket prices are $5 for students and $10 for adults with tickets sales from the Friday night performance to benefit the people of Haiti through the Red Cross. Tickets are available at the Dance Theatre of Dalton front desk or the DHS theatre door on the day of the shows.
 

Club D: Giving Back to Our Community

This year Club D wants to help the people of Haiti.  All proceeds from the Friday night performance of their March Concert will go to the Red Cross for Haitian relief.  Club D dancers annually volunteer an average of over 1000 hours of community service. They are recognized each April at a banquet with last year’s top honors going to members who volunteered more than 100 hours during the course of the year. Dalton Arts Project recognizes the importance of service to our community and is proud to have such dedicated dancers and active community participants.
 
 
 

Happenings

Dalton Arts Project is proud to have recently hosted Dustin Phillips, renowned hip hop choreographer, for a weekend of both community classes and intensive training for members of Dalton Dance Company.  This is Dustin's second trip to Dalton as he also came in January of 2009.  For an entire Saturday and a Sunday afternoon, Dustin taught classes and set new dance pieces on company dancers that will be featured in the upcoming March concert.  We are fortunate to have had Dustin in Dalton as he also choreographs for professional sports dance teams and spends many weekends judging dance competitions.  Dalton Arts Project will continue to bring guest artists in when available to teach community classes.  Vince Gully, hip hop instructor from Atlanta, is returning once again to teach both at Dance Theatre of Dalton and through a Dalton Arts Project ArtReach program at the local Boys and Girls Club.

Nutcracker News!

Nutcracker 2009 was a huge success and would not have been possible without the support of Dalton Arts Project donors, community patrons and hundreds of volunteers.  Thank you to everyone who gave of their time and themselves to help this holiday tradition continue.  Thank you especially to the dancers - you all did a fantastic job and made every performance unique and a joy to watch!  Audiences once again attended seven sold out performances.  An added treat this year was that Dalton native and dance instructor Jo Beth Thompson danced the featured role of Sugar Plum Fairy.  Although this year's production has come to a close, plans are already in the works for Nutcracker 2010.  Visit our Nutcracker page to see the latest pictures from our most recent performances.  Click Here.
