FLY Dance Company
October 13, 2021 - 7:00 p.m.
Adults $24, Students $10
Let's begin where we left off!
FLY is what happens when street dance and classical music meet, but that's not all. Their performance style is called "theatrical hip hop" - "theatrical" because acting is an essential element of their style. FLY is pure fun - youthful energy, risk-taking movement, and clever choreography set to a mix of surprising musical selections. In addition, their community outreach reaches an average of 50,000 kids annually with educational shows, residencies, and workshops that are unmatched in variety and positive social impact. Put it all together, and we think you'll agree, "There's no other group like
FLY Dance Company."
