Award Winning Choreographer Candace Taylor Brings Joy To JACK This April

Award winning choreographer Candace Taylor brings joy to JACK with Candace Taylor: Effervescent Encounters, April 14 - 15 at 7:30 pm and April 16 at 3:00 pm.

Choreographed and performed by Candace Taylor, Associate Choreographer of the Tony-award winning musical A Strange Loop. Effervescent Encounters is a dance piece exploring the magic that occurs when the light in one person witnesses and intertwines with another. Through individual and collective stories Candace investigates interdependence within the body and invites both audiences and performers to ground together in their humanity. The New York Times has called Taylor's work "funny, furious and almost feral". Her newest work will make you scream, cry, laugh, it's up to you - just bring your light and Candace will make magic with you.
