Dance | April 21-22 | North Tahoe High School | Tahoe City
Lake Tahoe Dance Collective celebrates 15 years with their annual Spring Repertory Season, presenting a company of young dancers alongside visiting professional dancers in classical, modern and contemporary choreography. The performances feature special guests, including Ballet Arizona principal dancer Ethan Price and Daphne Fernberger and Mario Gonzalez of L.A. Dance Project.
This year’s season marks the return of the second act of the ballet, “Giselle,” adapted from a classical masterwork that originally debuted in Paris in 1841. LTDC’s Natalia Christian will premiere in the title role.
In the contemporary genre, LTDC has commissioned two new works by choreographers Constantine Baecher and Deborah Lohse. Baecher’s work is inspired by Alan Lightman’s book “Searching for Stars on an Island in Maine.” Lohse’s new work, “We’ll Take It From Here,” explores fantastic adventures and the confrontation of fear. | laketahoedancecollective.org
