National Tap Star Bill Evans to Perform July 3

An Intimate Evening of Tap Dancing with Bill Evans
and guest Deborah Robertson

July 3, 2008 at 7:30 pm

Rose Wagner Performing Arts Center (138 W Broadway)

Tickets: $15 general admission, $10 with student ID (on sale later this week). Call 801-355-ARTS or visit www.arttix.org

RDT alumnus Bill Evans returns to Salt Lake for a one night only solo performance as part of RDT's LINK series. Mr. Evans, recently named one of the country's three favorite tap dance artists in a Dance Magazine readers poll, will perform works ranging from rhythm tap classics to his own unique lyrical style, which fuses tap and modern dance. Salt Lake City tap artist Deborah Robertson will join him for some of the dances.

“Evans knows how to entertain, and he does it in such a distinct and personal way that by evening’s end every fan should feel almost like a friend….He is quite simply a master of his craft, and if anything he gets better with age. He does it all and it is this kind of versatility that allows him to go it alone for an evening with such success.”—Helen Forsberg, Salt Lake Tribune

"His breadth of experience in ballet, modern and tap dance has molded Evans into a uniquely lyrical-percussive artist. And while fusion might be an easy buzzword to slap onto his merging of styles, he more accurately melds each discipline into the other so that only movement—with no titles attached—remains.”—Lucia Mauro, Chicago Tribune
