The American Spirit Dance Company at Oklahoma City University
will bring rapid-fire tap, jazz and musical theatre numbers to the stage
March 15 for its Spring Show. “This is our fastest-paced show of the
year and your chance to see many styles of American dance, from
what you would see on Broadway to cruise ships and theme parks
to pop artists on major tours,” said Director Jo Rowan.

The show opens March 15 and continues through March 17 in the Kirkpatrick
Auditorium inside OCU’s Kirkpatrick Fine Arts Center at N.W. 25th St. and
Blackwelder Ave.

High energy numbers like “It Don’t Mean a Thing,” “How About You,“ Crunchy
Granola Suite,” “Let Yourself Go” and “Sun in the Morning” are sure to keep the
audience jazzed. Reminiscent of the Rat Pack days, “Sing You Sinners,” and
celebrating the big band era, “A Cool Cat in Town,” will transport viewers to an
earlier time.

“Love is Good for Anything that Ails You” will feature a stunning chorus line of
24 dancers. A tribute to the red, white and blue, “Corcoran Cadets” and “Stars
and Stripes” will elicit patriotic pride.

Just before closing out the show, dancers will “Raise the Roof,” celebrating
some of the best moves in theatre jazz.

Show times are 8 p.m. March 15 and 16 and 2 and 8 p.m. March 17. Tickets are $20
each and can be purchased by calling (405) 208-5227.
