Fri 6 Mar, 7:30-9 pm. Paul Taylor changed the world of dance when he first presented his choreography in Manhattan on May 30, 1954. That performance launched 60 years of unrivaled creativity that forged his status as a cultural icon and one of history’s most celebrated artists, hailed as part of the pantheon that created American modern dance.
Mr. Taylor’s legacy lives on with his world-renowned dance company, which features some of today’s finest dancers performing his brilliant works. University of Florida Performing Arts, 3201 Hull Road, Gainesville, 32611. 352-392-2787. UF School of Theatre & Dance - [facebook][events]
