About the event
Have you ever wondered how dances are made? How do dancers magically change ideas into movements that express mood, image and story? On May 14, Benita Bike’s DanceArt will not only present you with a number of beautifully performed dances, but you’ll also be invited to ask questions and make comments about the work you see. We want to hear what you think! Known for its “beautifully evocative choreography and lovely company of dancers,” the Company looks forward to share its own brand of musicality, architectural choreography, and elegant dancing with Burbank audiences.
