The house will be rockin' tonight, April 11 when the Dancing Wheels Company ignites the stage at Public Hall with an unforgettable evening of music and dance by America's most notable Rock Hall inductees: Madonna, R.E.M., Ray Charles, The Temptations and Alice Cooper.
An awesome VIP Party (hosted by more than 55 enthusiastic hosts) will start the festivities at 6:30 p.m. Party goers will be invited to food samplings enjoyed by the rock stars themselves prepared by Executive Caterers, a photo booth where they can dress up like their favorite rocker and peruse unique musical and 'rock' and "roll" items on the one of a kind silent auction.
The high energy performance will commence at 8:00 p.m. with a special guest appearance by Bobby Harris and
Skip Martin from the Grammy Award-winning, Dazz Band who will open the performance. Guest celebrity hosts Thomas Mulready of CoolCleveland, Dennis Lewins, with WCLV/HD2 Idea Stream and
Jeremy James Verdi, Cougar 93.7 will take audiences on a musical journey as they introduce each dance performed by the Dancing Wheels Company.
Four emerging choreographers from New York City were chosen to create new dance works for this concert using the music from inductees from the Rock Hall of Fame. Shawn Rawls created The Temptation Suite with Just My Imagination, Ain't too Proud to Beg and Papa was a Rolling Stone,
Ted Thomas went with songs from R.E.M Man on the Mood, At My Most Beautiful and Superman entitled If You Believe; Ashley Carter and Vanessa Martinez used a later Madonna song 4 Minutes, in which she sang with
Justin Timberlake and Timbaland, they titled their piece Save the World and Ginger Cox brought to life the soulful and hip music of
Ray Charles with Let theGood Times Roll, a medley consisting of Let the Good Times Roll Georgia (on my mind) and Hit the Road Jack!
In addition to these four world premieres, the Company will also perform its recent new and exciting high energy work, Straight Down the Middle a suite of
Alice Cooper music choreographed by Dance St. Louis Artistic Director, Michael Uthoff. A special guest appearance by the Dancing Wheels School will be an amazing addition to the evening Twenty-two students from the Dancing Wheels School will be joined on stage by students from "On Your Toes" Dance Studio for Pride with music by U2 choreographed by Dancing Wheels School Coordinator,
Emma Parker.
