Trolley Dances in San Diego

For 39 years, the San Diego Dance Theatre (SDDT) has been enriching the cultural life of San Diego residents through countless dance concerts and training for young dancers. In 1997 Jean Isaacs was appointed artistic director, and under her tuteledge the company has earned a reputation as a company of fully professional dancers committed to unconventional and deeply courageous programming. They are known specifically for their Trolley Dances their summer dance workshops, and the sheer beauty of their dancers.

Their mission is to create and perform intelligent dances that breathe life into the people of their region and beyond. The dances created have to be gorgeous and very physical. They have to reflect the world as it is now: urban, edgy, moving towards gender equality, deeply human, and danced by people of varied sizes, colors and background.

I can't wait to go see the dancers! They'll be dancing at trolley stops around San Diego on September 24, 25, and October 1 and 2.
