Les Caractères de la Danse

Les Caractères de la Danse

Baroque dancers Paige Whitley-Bauguess and Thomas Baird return with a delightful program featuring diverse characters that graced the 18th-century stage: shepherds, harlequins, nymphs, and sailors. The Virgina Gazette calls their movements, "stylish, exacting, deliberate and elegant...effortlessly executed." With accompaniment by The Newberry Consort on violin, harpsichord, and cello-along with a few vocal gems-Les Caractères de la Danse promises to be a tantalizing performance. Prepare to be entertained like a king or queen!
