PROMENADE HALL AT THE OVERTURE CENTER
The Rhythm Project
Celebrating Ways to Keep the Beat
Southern Spain, Africa, Ireland, and the antebellum American South – what do all these regions have in common?
They’re all places that gave birth to unique forms of percussive dance – dances where the dancers make sounds as well as shapes with their bodies.
See and hear all these forms in action with The Rhythm Project, a new interdisciplinary production featuring Irish dance, body percussion, Flamenco, and rhythm tap – plus live music.
WHAT WE DO
"Don't stop to measure the pain or the pleasure. The fun is just about to begin."
— Neil Allen Peckett
The Neil Allen Peckett Memorial Fund offers individuals financial assistance in pursuing the study of tap dance and/or other educational activities of TNW Ensemble Theater, as well as providing free tickets to performances and other special projects.
