“Flat out amazing!” is how the Minneapolis Star Tribune describes Rhythmic Circus’ show Feet Don’t Fail Me Now! Rhythmic Circus has quickly risen from an underground percussive dance phenomenon to an innovative live performance company that will wow your students. Rhythmic Circus presents a one-hour narrated performance featuring excerpts from Feet Don’t Fail Me Now! The program includes a history of tap as well as opportunities for students to participate and learn a few basic tap moves. It concludes with a question and answer session with the cast.
The Dennos Museum Center offers educational performance experiences that align with your performing arts appreciation curriculum. Educational Performances vary by performer, but generally include short performances, interactive sections with singing, clapping or other activities, and some discussion of the genre of music or culture of the performers.
Educational performances take place in the Milliken Auditorium at the Dennos Museum Center and are approximately 50 minutes in length. All attendees of performances in the Milliken Auditorium are welcome to visit the Museum galleries to view exhibits before or after the workshop. If you would like a printed gallery guide or activity for the students during this time please contact us ahead of time to make arrangements. Call (231) 995-1029 to book your class!
The fee for educational performances is $6 per seat. Teachers and chaperones are not free for educational concerts and must pay the $6 per seat fee. All groups must pay by the date of the performance. Groups that pay at least two weeks before the date of the performance will receive a discounted rate of $5 per seat. Pricing is based on the number of seats reserved. Refunds are not available for unused seats.
Scholarships through the Dennos Museum Center may be available if you are unable to cover the costs of your visit.
