Excerpt

Wright State University’s Dance Ensemble has invited two local dance companies — Dayton Ballet II and Dayton Contemporary Dance Company II — to join them for this year’s spring dance concerts. The performances are slated for 7 p.m. Thursday, April 23, 8 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, April 24-25, and 2 p.m. on Sunday, April 26.

Featured guest choreographer is Broadway veteran, Greg Graham, currently associate choreographer on Broadway’s “On the Town.” During his January residency in Dayton, Graham crafted a narrative work to the legendary music of Led Zeppelin. He says his piece, “Zeppelin Moves” is about a group of old friends who rekindle their friendship at another place in time. “It’s a story about living the now, hope for your future, and moving on to the things your life has to offer,” Graham explains.
