Gala planned; dancers lauded

NORWICH – The Amber Perkins School of the Arts invites the community to support its annual ‘Moonlight Gala’ on Friday, April 4 at the Howard Johnson Hotel ballroom, 75 N. Broad St., Norwich.

The festivities, beginning at 7 p.m., include dancing and a preview of dance students’ recital and competition performances. The fundraiser helps defray the costs of student participation in this year’s competitions.

Music is provided by Rock Star DJ Services of Norwich. Hors d’oeuvres and refreshments are available. For ticket information, contact the studios in Norwich by calling 336-6143 or in Vestal at 429-0087.

“The gala is an excellent way for the community to get to know our school and see and meet our dancers,” Perkins said.

Choreography created by Perkins was recently selected to be performed in May at the Choreofest concert New York City.

Principal dancers from the Wylliams Henry Danse Company of Kansas City, Missouri, will perform an adagio duet that Perkins created and later sold to the professional dance company. Only one piece of choreography per dance company participating in Choreofest was selected to be performed.
