Louisiana Dance Theater to perform in San Antonio on April 10 in closing the Regional Dance America Fest; 22 local dancers perform Ap 6 at Carol Anglin Dancenter

Shreveport’s first, and only, regional ballet company, Louisiana Dance Theatre (LDT) has been selected to close the Regional Dance America/ SW Festival Gala Performance April 10, 2010 at the historic Municipal Auditorium in San Antonio, TX, says Carol Anglin.

This is the highest honor ever bestowed on the Shreveport-based company in its 27-year history, which is usually reserved for Houston and Dallas Metropolitan Ballet companies.

A studio performance showcasing AfterShock and honoring its choreographer, Dianne Maroney Grigsby, will be held Tuesday, April 6, 2010 from 8:00 – 8:30 pm at Carol Anglin Dancenter at Pierremont Mall. The performance is free and open to the public; however individuals and businesses are invited to make donations to the non-profit organization.

Aftershock memorializes the recent disaster in Haiti.

Twenty-two north Louisiana dancers will perform in AfterShock including: Bailey Anglin, Maisy Brocato, Chemika Burnett, Collin Cochran, Alex Crevoiserat, Sheridan Graham, Auctavia Grant, Lisa Harkness, Lilly Herron, Alexis Jackson, Key’Andrea James, Meghan Jelks, Tierra King, Breana Lathers, Danielle Martin, Princeton McCurtain, Lindsey Olinde, CyVanie Ramkelawan, Kimi Rousseau, Gabbi Sorensen, Brittaney Washington, and Devin Williams.

Texas Relays Events in Austin This Weekend!

Man! It hits me every freakin' year. Just a couple weeks after SXSW ends, the Texas Relays start. That's way too much partying in two weeks time for even the most fervent college age spring breaker, let alone my old ass. But I'ma try and see what I can see. Rest assured these flyers only represent a small percentage of what's gonna be on and poppin' in the city this weekend.

I heard Bizzy Bone and Hurricane Chris has a show at the Expo Center and Bavu Blakes will be live in concert at The Highball. Need to find those flyers.

Also Happy Easter. Click all the flyers to see them full size!

First up a benefit for the big homey J. Kapone. As some of you may know, he was picked up on federal charges as part of a bit of a sting in Austin recently. Well J. was picked up in Memphis, but it was part of a bigger thing. Help the man out, he, like everyone else in this world, deserves a fair trial.
