Hubbard Street Dance in Boston

A few times over the years that I was living near Chicago, I attempted to make it to a Hubbard show to no avail. Finally tonight L, d. and I will make a night of it: Italian for dinner and then off to the show! Here is the program description: In their 2004 Celebrity Series debut, Hubbard Street Dance Chicago mesmerized crowds with energy that literally jumped off the stage and into the audience. From its humble beginnings nearly three decades ago, Hubbard Street Dance Chicago has blossomed into one of the most influential and original forces in contemporary dance. Performing the repertory of the most innovative international and American choreographers, the company of 21 powerfully versatile dancers sails through work blending ballet, jazz, and modern influences.
