Addison Trail to present Orchesis Show

On April 24 and 25, it’s time to “Step Up” with Addison Trail’s Orchesis Show.

The show will feature 24 dance numbers that showcase a variety of styles such as hip-hop, Latin, tap and lyrical. This year’s theme is “Step Up,” which was chosen to encourage everyone to step up when they have the chance and seize every opportunity to show the world what they can do.

The crowd also will get to enjoy three solos, as this is the first year the Orchesis Team has three presidents – seniors Brianna Sitkowski, Angela Pitello and Gina Dattolo. Another unique aspect of the show will be the introduction number and the finale. The opening dance will highlight iconic female artists from the 90s to present day, and the closing performance will showcase iconic male artists from present day to the 90s.

Every aspect of the show – from the choreography, to the costumes to the lighting – is run by the students, and Sitkowski, Pitello and Dattolo said they feed off of each other for inspiration.
