THE ORPHEUS PROJECT
A new and original musical/dance work, created and performed by the
Diploma Program students of the East Bay Center.
As a culmination of the 2009 Summer Diploma Program, EBCPA will be presenting a workshop performance, loosely based upon the classic Greek myth of loss and transformation, Orpheus and Euridice.
The show will weave the multiple strands of our program- West African Dance, Jazz, Classical Chamber Music, Ballet, Hip-Hop Dance, Modern Dance, Mexican Music and Dance, Theater, Chorus- into an urban retelling of a universal and timeless story.
