Celebrating 16 Years!

Dance Key West’s 16th anniversary season includes performance, outreach, and education, as we stay true to our objective of sharing the art of dance with the Key West community and beyond.

Sea Legs

“Sea Legs” is a site-specific performance choreographed by Cait Belland. Dancers will perform original choreography in celebration of the natural beauty of Key West. During the performance, dancers will weave through phrasing that suggests the power of nature and examines how we choose to respond to force: Do we flow or do we resist? “Sea Legs” highlights the relationship between humans and the ocean, emphasizing conservation and respect for marine life and the key west community. The theme of “Sea Legs” symbolizes finding ones balance and adapting to new environments.

When & Where: 7pm on Monday, December 30th at Dixon Place NYC

The ReMARCable Dance Project

The ReMARCable Dance Project is an innovative dance program that combines the talents of Dance Key West, Blue’s Clues’ Steve Burns, and MARC.This exciting program intends to benefit MARC clients by helping them improve coordination, participate in mild physical activity and provide an opportunity for socialization, all while learning the art of dance. We believe that artistic expression and physical activity are imperative to good health, and that every creative voice should be nurtured.

For our 6th ReMARCable Dance Project, MARC clients will team up with Dance Key West & Steve, to learn dance moves, create choreography, perform and have fun!

When & Where: 4pm on Saturday April 26th at Helmerich Theater, The Studios of Key West
