Next month, River North Dance Chicago will make their premier voyage to Israel.
The company is set to open the 2014- 2015-dance season at the Herzliya Performing Arts Center with a mixed program consisting of works by a number of leading choreographers.
Under the artistic directorship of Frank Chavez, River North’s repertoire has come to include a number of styles namely; neoclassical, contemporary and modern dance. Their program breaks from the expected threepart evening with a veritable smorgasbord of dance pieces.
Six short productions, including three works by Chavez, will give audiences an opportunity to acquaint themselves with the fabulous dancers of River North. In addition to their performances, Chavez and the company members will teach a number of master classes and workshops around the country.
The American Embassy endorses the troupe’s visit. River North Dance Chicago will perform at the Herzliya Performing Arts Center on October 21-25.
