The SCAD performing arts department will present the world premiere of a light-hearted dance production, “The Station,†conceived, directed and choreographed by SCAD performing arts professor Vincent Brosseau, with set design by Hal Tine and lighting by Robert Mond.
“The Station†will run Saturday, April 3 at 8 p.m., Sunday, April 4 at 3 p.m., and Monday, April 5 at 8 p.m. at Trustees Theater, 216 E. Broughton St., Savannah, Georgia.
This fun-filled romp brings together more than 30 dancers. Act I features a number of characters in various scenes—sisters, lovers, soldiers, businessmen—as they wait at a train station for their train to arrive. Act II brings these characters back to the same train station years later, full of the hope, love or regret from the decisions they made at the station years before.
A graduate of The Juilliard School in New York, Brosseau danced the works of such renowned choreographers as Jose Limon, David Parson, Paul Taylor and Anna Sokolow. His television credits include the PBS special “Live from Lincoln Center” in which he performed in Paul Taylor’s “Cloven Kingdom.†Before coming to SCAD, Brousseau directed the modern dance company Brosseau Danceworks, based in Charlotte, N.C., for six years. At SCAD he has choreographed “Guys and Dolls†and “Carousel,†and created the dance pieces “Silence,†“Ripping Souls†and “The Crossing,†among others.
Admission to “The Station†is $5 for students, seniors and military; and $10 for the general public. Free with valid SCAD ID for the Monday, April 5 performance ONLY.
Tickets are available at the Trustees Theater box office, 216 E. Broughton St., online at www.savannahboxoffice.com, and by phone at 912.525.5050.
