Chicago Dance Workshop at Dance Theatre of Ireland
Sunday 6th Dec. 2 - 6pm Dance Theatre of Ireland Studio, Dun Laoghaire
The musical Chicago was first seen on Broadway with spectacular direction & choreography by Bob Fosse. Fosse's style of dance is unmistakeable - inverted arms & shoulders combine with slow deliberate extensions & contorted poses to create plateaus no other choreographer had attempted before and thousands have copied since.
The story of Roxie Hart & Velma Kelly, femme fatales in 1920's Chicago, is now synonymous with slick, stylish theatre with a sense of humour and real bite.
AJ O Neill joined the West End cast of Chicago in 2007 as dance swing and understudy. He has played every male role in the show bar one and has a unique insight into the different strengths and styles needed to perform different aspects of Fosse's choreography. This workshop will cover a few of the different styles of the show. It will teach the vocabulary of the steps from ALL THAT JAZZ (& time permitting...other routines from the show). As part of the workshop AJ will be imparting the pinciples & background of Fosse's technique and some of Fosse's famed group movement.
