7 emerging tap dance artists. 1 evening of explosive dance works and reflective conversation.

Audible Odyssey's "Sound+Resound" will bring together 7 emerging tap dance choreographers for 1 night of explosive performances.  In rapid succession, each choreographer will express their unique point of view in this intimate presentation of mostly premier works. 

From hip hop to storytelling, humor to contemplation - this show will change the way you think of tap dance.

ABOUT THE ARTISTS (in order of appearance in video above)

Kendra Jorstad: I tap dance because..."It feeds something in my soul I can't get from anything else."  Read more about Kendra.

Star Dixon: I tap dance because...."It's all I know. I was brought up on tap dancing. I couldn't imagine my life without it. I feel the most comfortable doing it. It's second nature to me." Read more about Star.

Tristan Bruns: I tap dance because...."It makes me happy."  Read more about Tristan.

Martin Bronson: I tap dance because...."I can't live without it.  It just feels good, especially when you connect with someone else, knowing that you expressed yourself and someone else listened."  Read more about Marty.

Jenna Deidel: I tap dance because...."It is the best vehicle for what I have to say as an artist."  Read more about Jenna.

Nico Rubio: I tap dance because...."I was destined to."  Read more about Nico.

Phil Brooks:  I tap dance because...."I must."  Read more about Phil.

Funds generously contributed by backers like you will be put towards theater rental, technical staff and marketing for this show, but more importantly, they will be allocated to the choreographers to honor their creative work, pay their dancers and support their rehearsal space rentals. 

We don't do what we do for the money, but what we do is valuable.  We cannot express how much your contribution to that standard means to us.
