Versa-Style Dance Company - "The Legacy Continues" pays tribute to the rich legacy of Hip Hop and street dance culture, honoring the past while also embracing the future of this powerful and constantly evolving art form. Hip Hop is more than just a style of dance. It is a culture, a history, and a voice. It was born from communities using music and movement as a way to express identity, tell stories, and be heard.

Tyler Jacobson in "Silksong", an acrobatic dance.
There are so many beautifully human stories to tell within our nation, but “Silksong” pays homage instead to nature. Inspired in many ways by Disney’s Fantasia 2000 retelling of Stravinsky’s “Firebird,” this piece portrays the embodiment of a verdant deity coming to life. As can still be seen in our national parks, nature can be both vibrantly beautiful and breathtakingly wild. This piece was developed in consideration of the tension between the desire to connect with and embrace nature while also respecting a safe distance from its ferocious potential. The choreographer hopes spectators will consider how to more actively appreciate the natural world without requiring it to be tamed.
