Dance

Rochelle is (mostly) delighted by Dance at Illinois' fall concert.

The Bollywood Masala Orchestra and Dancers of India will bring their exuberant musical celebration of India to Krannert this week.

Rochelle is excited to see James Brown honored by Phildanco's powerful and kinetic dance company.

It turns out that for something called “circus”, the Peking Dreams performance features drama, theatrics and dance as opposed to the plotless clowns and tricks to which Western audiences are accustomed. 

Rochelle once again demonstrates the differences between expectation and reality when it comes to cultural dance. 

What do you get when you cross 2015’s Pulitzer Prize-winning composer with a world-class acting institute, an internationally renowned performance center, and the unique community of Champaign-Urbana? A night at the theatre that could only happen here.

Remembering her early days of attempted conversion to gracefulness, Rochelle explores the many casual and beginner dance programs offered by our communities' park districts.
