RDT Presents Tanner Dance at Ring Around the Rose Today

Repertory Dance Theatre's "Ring Around the Rose" program presents Tanner Dance today, November 8, 2014 at 11:00 am. Celebrating the art of creative dance, this Utah dance staple will present an interactive show for all ages.

Tanner Dance will present "Dance is..." What are the elements of dance? What makes dance fun? How can I dance? Come and watch, learn and enjoy the elements of dance in action. Students of Tanner Dance have composed an exciting and informative experience for you to learn about dance.

Virginia Tanner (1915 - 1979), founder of the Virgina Tanner Creative Dancer Program, was guided by the premise that: "The motivating force behind my work is not only developing excellent dancers, but more importantly, developing young people who are useful, imaginative, worthwhile human beings."

Come celebrate and enjoy some of Utah's most talented young dancers.
