Looking for Alice's Adventures in Wonderland go to www.alice2016.brownpapertickets.com Mahalo. (Tickets are available at the door for all shows.) Alexander Academy Performing Company will perform Prokofiev's Cinderella June 6 and 7 at Seabury Hall's 'A'ali'ikuhonua Creative Arts Center. Three performances throughout the weekend will showcase the talent and skill of over 150 student dancers from ages three years old to adult.
Cinderella will open with select contemporary, hip hop and jazz pieces choreographed by AAPA faculty. Executive Director Danelle Watson reflects, "we are known for our strong ballet department, but we have proven our versatility with exciting contemporary works as well. Our productions exhibit the variety of dance styles taught at the Academy, which have been very successful and esteemed by our Maui audiences."
The music and story has inspired many choreographers to continue presenting the story and ballet of Cinderella. We are excited to welcome back guest dancer, Nathaniel Hunt, professional dancer. He will join the AAPC cast as our prince again. "We are extremely excited to provide fun character roles, partnering for our leads, and beautiful choreography for our corps de ballet" says Watson. "We strive for a professional experience for all our students, and it shows with the quality of our annual productions". Hunt graduated summa cum laude with a Bachelors of Fine Arts in Dance from Long Island University-Brooklyn, and has studied at the Ailey School, Earl Mosley's Institute for the Arts, and the Joffrey Ballet School and is presently dancing with Alvin Ailey II Company.
