Step Afrika! Comes to Utah State

The Associated Students of Utah State University will host the critically-acclaimed dance troupe Step Afrika! at the Kent Concert Hall Thursday, March 29, at 7 p.m.

The group provides the final performance of the 2006-2007 ASUSU Arts & Lectures Series. Tickets are $5 for USU students and $10 for non-students. Tickets can be purchased at the USU Ticket Office by calling (435) 797-0305.

 

“This is a performance I’ve been really excited about all year long,” said ASUSU Arts & Lectures Director Kyle Milne. “After I saw their promotional video, I knew it would be one of the best shows of the season.”

 

Founded in Washington, D.C., in 1994, Step Afrika! is the first professional dance team dedicated to the art of stepping. The company combines traditional stepping with South African tribal dances to produce a show audiences have found to be highly entertaining and cultural. Step Afrika! has performed on stages around the world, including North and South America, Europe, Africa and the Caribbean. The group’s most recent success comes from its work in choreographing and dancing for the box office hit Stomp the Yard.
