About this Event
Join St George Dance Company March 19th & 20th for our spring show
Buddy Holly Gets a Date: a modern love story set to oldies music
Created and directed by Artistic Director Jennie Jones with guest choreography by St. George Dance Company dancers Rachel Holman and Rachel Blackford, and from Jamie Waters and Tino Smith.
This family friendly contemporary dance concert is sure to be a hit with the young and old alike!
Set to the nostalgic sounds of Connie Francis, The Platters, The Flamingos and of course, Buddy Holly, Buddy Holly Gets a Date juxtaposes the sweet lyrics of 1950s romance with the sometimes "automated" experience of trying to date in a digitally connected world.
Explore the themes of friendship, unrequited love, heartbreak and romance through the artistic and athletic movement of contemporary dance, and follow the experience of a modern-day Buddy Holly in his search for love when you see St. George's only professional contemporary dance company at the Electric Theater March 19th & 20th.
Masks are required for all attendees.
"The lyrics of love songs may have changed over the last 60 years, but the feelings are the same."
-Jennie Jones, creator and director
