Back Pocket Dancers is a seven-member inter-generational dance company (oldest member is 89!) formed for the purpose of creating and presenting powerful dance/theater programs for elders, families and children. Our current show -- Dance Me a Story -- combines dance, music, narration, costumes and a puppet to tell four engaging tales from Haiti, the Amazon rainforest, the US and the Russian Jewish tradition. The Company gives performances, dance workshops, and residencies of varying lengths. We are also available to work with elder residents to create a performance based on their own personal stories and experiences, bringing their talents in dance, theater and singing into a creative experience they will never forget. Dance Me a Story is a wonderful, dynamic presentation for school audiences and inter-generational groups. |
