South Chicago Dance Theatre does it all! Yes – we’ve dove head-first into the month of September and I’m so excited to share with you all that we have in store and have been working on, but I’m wrapping up August by giving you the inside scoop on the show we did for the National Council of State Boards of Nursing’s award banquet!

Like I said – we do it all! From shows at the Harris and Auditorium Theatre’s, performances for school age children in their gymnasiums, tours internationally, and NOW…corporate events! It’s unlike anything else we really get to do in the fact that it’s all for pure entertainment value.

When first studying dance, we were told that dance is made for multiple reasons – to inform or educate, to inspire or evoke emotion, to make a statement (whether that be socially, politically, psychologically, etc.), and to entertain! As a group, SCDT’s bigger shows often times evoke a lot of emotion, while our school shows aim to educate students on Black History. This particular awards show held at the Swissotel in downtown Chicago was solely to entertain the attendants of this beautiful event!

We had 30 minutes to WOW the audience while they enjoyed dessert & a show! We performed a couple upbeat pieces of our repertoire mixed in with new creations solely for this event that had the theme “Every Moment Matters”.

SCDT had a wonderful time performing at this gorgeous event and it was a fun show to close our first month back in season with! Where would you like to see us next? Let your corporate dreams fly…
