Footlight Dance Company’s 2024-25 Dance Enrichment Tour in our Schools will take place January 23 – February 4, 2025. A free community performance will take place – Thursday, January 30, 2025 at the WRHS Performing Arts Theater at the Community Campus – Hailey, Idaho. 7:00 pm
Our program this year is entitled “LITERACY – CREATIVITY”. Our performance tour will address the importance of reading to tell our stories of the past, present and future. Under the direction of Hilarie Neely, Artistic Director of Footlight Dance Company, the dancers will use the genres of ballet, modern, tap, jazz and hip hop dance to interpret the power of reading. Our hope is to bring awareness of how movement, visual arts, and reading work together to share and connect us through story telling. We are also excited to be working with The Community Library, Children’s Library on this project. Both DeAnn Campbell and Haley Christianson are working outreaches to local schools that will include curriculum resources to enhance student responses.
