Pima dancers to present 4 ELEMENTS

By EDWINA FRANCISCO

aztecpress@pima.edu

Pima Community College dancers are ready to kick off their spring concert in 4 ELEMENTS.

“It will be a very dynamic show that will involve the entire audience,” director Aurora Gonçalves-Shaner said.

Performances will be May 13-14 in the PCC Center for the Arts Proscenium Theatre on West Campus. The Friday concert is at 7:30 p.m. There will be two shows on Saturday, at 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m.

Cost is $10 for general admission and $8 for students.

Dancers will define water, air, fire and metal through movement and visual art. Large paintings, each representing an element, will create backdrops on stage.

Different dances will showcase individual elements. For example, fire will correspond with belly dance. Air will represent heaven, using a live harpist.

Dance styles will include classical ballet, ballroom, jazz, salsa, modern and hip-hop.

Tickets are available at the CFA box office and online.

Box office hours are Tuesday-Friday, noon-5 p.m. and one hour before the show.

For further details, call 206-6986 or visit pima.edu/cfa.

Dec. 10-11 dance concerts will showcase ‘GrATTITUDE’

By SAMANTHA ESQUIVEL

Gratitude mixed with attitude will be the theme for this year’s winter dance concert.

Pima Community College dancers will perform in three “GrATTITUDE” concerts Dec. 10-11 in the West Campus Center for the Arts Proscenium Theatre. The Friday performance begins at 7:30 p.m. Saturday shows are at 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m.

“I picked the name for the performance because people are more aware of their blessings during the holiday,” director Aurora Gonçalves-Shaner said.

The show emphasizes the passions and convictions of college-age students by blending the virtue of gratitude with the power of dance attitude, she said.

PCC students and faculty, along with guest artists from the University of Arizona, will perform a variety of dance styles.

Dance numbers will range from classical works, such as the Black Swan Grand Pas de Deux from “Swan Lake,” to contemporary dance styles including salsa and hip-hop.

Gonçalves-Shaner, a full-time dance instructor at both PCC and UA, was born in São Paulo, Brazil. She grew up in Bahia, where she developed her classical ballet and modern dance techniques.

Her professional experience includes traveling the world with a Brazilian contemporary dance company, Ballet Teatro Castro Alves. She has won U.S. national titles in ballroom dance competitions.

Tickets to “GrATTITUDE” cost $10, with discounts available. Call the box office at 206-6986 for additional information.

Gonçalves-Shaner said she hopes the show helps patrons feel gratitude.

“I want the audience to leave being thankful for lives, friends and the blessings in their lives identified through dance,” she said.
