BATH — Resurgence Dance Company will present “Late Night Tales” in the Curtis Room of the Chocolate Church Arts Center Annex at 804 Washington St.
The contemporary ballet features vignettes of true stories depicting moments in dancers’ lives and will be performed at 7 p.m. Friday and Saturday, Jan. 29 and 30. There will be a performance at 2 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 31.
The Resurgence Dance Company is directed by Ashley Steeves and comprised of 12 dancers. The origin of this show is derived from when members of the company sat down together, drank tea and discussed some details from their pasts.
“You can dance with someone for years and not realize that they live in the same town, went to college in New York, or are allergic to pets,” said Ashley Steeves. “This project was a way for the dancers to open the dialogue about one another and feel closer. This dynamic transmits into their performances choreographed to current music.”
From ambient to upbeat, each dancer will perform stories from their lives to give the audience a more personal experience. Multiple dances will be shown, and narration will help tune audience members into the story behind the pieces.
Staged in the Curtis room, this smaller performance space will give the audience an up-close and personal view of the dancers.
The performances will last just over an hour and will not have an intermission.
The suggested donation is $10 for tickets in advance for those younger than 18, or $14 at the door; adults are $15 is advance, $16 at the door.
Seats may be reserved online at www.chocolatechurch.com/tickets.
