Odyssey's Spring Repertory Season is a dance lover's buffet, with something for everyone. Deseret News said, "Odyssey Dance Theatre's Shut Up and Dance season only proves that it is a company to be taken seriously. Bravo!"
Shut Up and Dance is where the dancers and choreographers get to stretch their artistic muscle and really show off their abilities and different styles in smaller repertoire-style works. Derryl said, "We again stress accessibility but we are not afraid to explore more innovative choreographic styles movement. The title says it all. Dance is an amazing form of expression that doesn't require manuals and textbooks to understand. It communicates to all and across all boundaries."
This year's program will include the following:
- Romeo+Juliet
From the creator of Thriller comes one of Odyssey Dance Theatre's favorite and critically acclaimed full-length pieces of all time. See what that Deseret News said was, "...to die for!" Based on the Shakespearean tale about star-crossed lovers, but in the Odyssey tradition: a hip-hop/latin/contemporary dance version. Choreographed by former Odyssey Principal Eldon Johnson, along with sections by Ashleigh and Ryan Di Lello from "So You Think You Can Dance," Darryl Yeager and others.
