SARAH REICH’S TAP MUSIC PROJECT
AUGUST 28, Friday, 8:00 PM
Norman Rothstein Theatre (950 West 41st Ave.)
Sarah Reich – a world-renowned performer and choreographer -has emerged as one of the new leaders in the art of Tap Dance. Her Tap Music Project features a completely unique band, consisting of LA-based tap dancers and musicians. In 2011, she began this unique creative process with dancers focused on their feet, bodies, steps and movements as percussive instruments. Next, Sarah collaborated with musicians to write original music based on the dance form.
This work is a game-changer: music from tap dancers. VITF is thrilled to present Tap Music Project in our city, to take the audience on an unbelievable, one-of-a-kind musical rhythmic journey!
