Bucks will be host to a special
presentation of dancers
showcasing various forms of
dance on April 15. The performers
are mainly Bucks students
and alumni and the
proceeds will go to charitable
organizations.
With the idea of combining
physical fitness and fun,
Bucks will continue to give
students an outlet for
expressing themselves
through dance and creative
choreography.
The name of the show is
“Energy Unleashed” and will
take place in the Gateway
Auditorium from 7-8 p.m.
“The theme of the show
involves transforming your
life into a positive experience
no matter what you
encounter,” said Donna
Greenfield, professor of physical
health and education and
main choreographer of the
show.
“Many styles of dance will
be showcased, such as hiphop,
funk, modern, jazz, and
lyrical.”
The participants are
Greenfield’s students from
her modern dance class at
Bucks. The dance routines
will consist of techniques
learned from class and also
student-created choreography
under Greenfield’s direction.
All levels of experience will
be represented.
Greenfield teaches modern
dance on Wednesday
evenings at the Lower Bucks
campus and on Tuesday
mornings at the Newtown
campus.
“New dancers, ones with
minimal experience and
advanced experience will be
included in the show,” said
Greenfield.
“But they all show the same
passion for expressing themselves
through dance.”
Admission to the event is $5
and proceeds from the show
will be donated to Habitat
For Humanity and the Red
Cross homeless shelter.
Additional donations will
also be accepted.
In addition to the dance
portion of the show, there
will be a music portion performed
by a Bucks alumnus.
A montage of art will be
showcased by a former Bucks
student as well.
Following the dance section,
there will be an improv
theater and acting portion.
“We are very excited for the
show,” said Greenfield. “The
students have been working
really hard and they will be
able to show what they learn
in class as well as demonstrate
their own created
dance routines.”
