CoffeeMill celebrates dance with 2 performances at Tennessee Williams Theater May 17 and May 18

For over 36 years, CoffeeMill’s instructional offerings have nurtured dancers young and old, supporting their professional and recreational development. On Friday, May 17, and Saturday, May 18, they celebrate with DanceWorks 17!, their annual spring dance concert featuring the ballet Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs as well as several newly choreographed contemporary works at 7:30pm at Tennessee Williams Theater.

This year’s annual concert brings together the best works produced by students, faculty, and professional dancers as they collaborate on an astounding celebration of all styles of dance including ballet, contemporary, hip-hop, modern, tap, jazz, lyrical, African, belly dance, and tumbling.  The audience can expect riveting performances by CoffeeMill instructors Leigh Pujado, Marissa Ajamian, Kara Querio, the Southernmost Shimmies, and the Young Dance Collective, CoffeeMill’s newly-formed non-profit and award-winning dance company comprised of dancers ages 8-17. The Collective is led by Joseph Goodman, a classically trained ballet dancer that offers the young dancers a rigorous syllabus in the Russian-based Vaganova technique.

With its two studios—“By the Bay,” located near the SearsTown Publix, and “The Annex,” at 804 White Street— CoffeeMill has increased its dance and fitness offerings and special workshops, intensives, and camps. This summer’s roster includes themed morning camps for children ages 3-8 at The Annex Studio from Monday, June 10 – Friday, July 19; a summer intensive series for children of all ages from Monday, June 3 – Friday July 26; and Key West Modern Dance Workshop 2019, a free (for Monroe County residents with a $25 registration fee) one-week modern dance intensive of technique, repertory, and composition classes for mixed levels ages 12 and up at By the Bay, along with regularly scheduled classes at both locations.

The annual DanceWorks! performances are a culmination of the time, talent, and dedication of students and instructors and the many opportunities for learning that CoffeeMill provides.  Celebrate dance and get your tickets for their Friday, May 17, and Saturday, May 18 performances at the Tennessee Williams Theater Box Office (305-295-7676) or keystix.com; tickets are $15 to $35.
