“Full Circle” is a celebration of dance created and performed in Tucson over the last 40 years. The concert also honors a space now known as The Scoundrel and Scamp Theatre. The theater was built in 1987 by Tenth St Danceworks, a scrappy modern dance company founded in 1984 on 10th Street in downtown Tucson by Charlotte Adams, Keith Collea, and Thom Lewis. When the company had to move for the transit center, they thought big and built a dance studio/theater space, Studio Y, in the old YWCA over what had originally been an indoor pool. The space remained a dance space for many years housing Tenth St. Danceworks, then Barbara Williams Performing Company, followed by ZUZI! Theater who inhabited the space for 18 years. It was remodeled in 2019 into a lovely theater space by Scoundrel and Scamp.
“Full Circle”, conceived by ZUZI’s Co-Founder and Artistic Director Nanette Robinson, will present four new and recent choreographic works by Charlotte Adams, Tenth St Danceworks’ artistic director from 1987-2000. This show will also feature prominent contemporary choreographers in the Tucson and southern Arizona area including Billbob Brown, Funhouse movement theater, Molly Schneck, Karyn Reim and Debby Urken. Adams returned to Tucson in 2019 after 23 years of being a professor of dance at the University of Iowa. She has assembled five superb, professional dancers to perform her four works for the upcoming concert. It feels “Full Circle” to present her work at the “Old Y” space with past and present dance makers and friends. Come celebrate a slice of Tucson’s dance scene in June.
Two performances will take place on Friday, June 5 and Saturday, June 6 at 7:30pm
