Sweet November Dance Company (SNDC) performed 10 choreographed dances in front of a huge crowd in the Palmer Center on the evening of November 26. Guided by theater and dance teacher Ms. Julie Frazier-Smith, whose lifelong love of dance inspired her to found SNDC in the fall of 2017, the company’s latest fall showcase, Take Flight, comes on the heels of its debut concert in November 2017, a dance showcase at the 2018 Spring Arts Festival, an electrifying performance last November, and a brilliant performance at the 2019 Spring Arts Festival.
SNDC is composed of TASIS High School students who dedicate their Sunday afternoons to learning company ensemble works. This November’s concert featured work from two guest choreographers, Jordine Cornish (Tel Aviv) and Alessia della Casa (Lugano), and included original pieces choreographed by both students and faculty members. The company was also joined on stage by dancers and musicians from the TASIS Faculty, Middle School, and Elementary School.
Take Flight included contemporary, hip hop, jazz, and aerial dance and can be viewed in full below. Performance and rehearsal photo galleries can be found on the TASIS SmugMug page.
