TapCo
Vanier Park at the site of Vancouver Tap Dance Society (VTDS) is delighted to present Just in Time - an exhilarating 45 minute presentation by Canada's most talented young tap dancers. VTDS's youth troupe Tap Co known for the high stepping routines, is an ensemble of seasoned young professionals presenting the legendary works of the masters, such as Hoofers Line, the Chair Dance, Shim Sham, and B S Chorus and commissioned choreography by such luminaries as Keith Terry and Josh Hilberman. Tap Co, formed in 2001 by VTDS, is a professional youth ensemble comprised of 16 dancers ranging in age from 9-18 years old, under the artistic direction of Mika Komatsu. Tap Co dancers have all trained at VTDS Tap Academy. The passion for tap is evident among these young dancers. They have earned their chops and are headed for promising dance careers - carrying forward the history of tap and making it their own. They have taken the best from the masters and added their own style and energy. Mika Komatsu, Artistic Director, TapCo, was born and trained in Japan, and her elegant, fluid style has been an influence on hundreds of young dancers. Upon request, tap classes are available (VTDS has bins of used tap shoes!) April 8 April 23 May 4 2009 —[ back to top ]—
