Addison Trail to present annual Orchesis Show

On May 2 and 3, Addison Trail will present its annual Orchesis Show.

This year’s theme is “Light Up the Dance Floor,” and the event will feature 22 dance numbers that showcase an array of styles such as hip-hop, jazz, lyrical, contemporary, musical theatre, tap and more.

Every aspect of the show – from the choreography, to the costumes to the set and lighting – is run by students.

The Orchesis Team officers said highlights of this year’s show include a focus on lighting, costumes and a wide variety of music styles. They added there will be a unique guy-girl dance with the escorts.

“There’s a strong bond between all of us, and that can be seen on stage in this year’s production,” the officers said. “The strengths of each member are really displayed.”
