On April 20 and 21, Addison Trail will present its annual Orchesis Show.

This year’s theme is “Unwritten Motion,” and the event will feature about 22 dance numbers that showcase an array of styles such as hip-hop, jazz, lyrical, tap, modern/contemporary and musical theatre. Every aspect of the show – from the choreography to the costumes to the lighting – is run by students, and the production involves about 100 dancers, crew members and staff members.

Orchesis Co-Sponsors LeVonne Cescolini-Boyer and Amy Ferraro said one of the strengths of this year’s show is the diversity provided by the group’s three Presidents.

“This year’s Orchesis Team is unique in that it’s led by three Presidents,” they said. “Each one brings a different dance style and perspective, and that variety will be featured in this year’s show.”

Presidents Mia Rumps, Alyssa Sitkowski and Grace Andrews, who are seniors, added the production will offer something for everyone, and audience members can look forward to a finale that has a different look and feel from previous years.
