GLAMOR AND ATHLETECISM IN LOCKSTEP

BYU BALLROOM DANCE COMPANY

🗓️ MONDAY, JANUARY 25 | 7:30 PM
📍BROWNING CENTER AT WSU

BYU brings its ballroom dance program to Ogden for a Monday night of spectacle, color, and motion that shines all the way to the back row. Thirty-two dancers move as one across the stage, and the whole show runs at the pace and scale of an international tour.

 

WHAT TO EXPECT FROM BYU BALLROOM DANCE IN OGDEN

 

The evening is paced like theater. Big ensemble numbers fill the stage with pattern and color, and smaller moments drop down to a single pair on the floor. Some stretches hit at full speed. Others float. Sequined gowns and sharp tailcoats move under lights that catch every turn, and the whole production runs without asking anything of the audience except to lean in and watch.

 

A PROGRAM WITH DECADES OF MOMENTUM

 

The program started in 1960 and has grown into the largest collegiate ballroom program in the country. Its touring roster has played more than 35 countries, from a command performance for the Queen of Thailand to recent stops across Africa and Southeast Asia. Utah audiences have watched it grow up over the years, and it still keeps a handful of nights on the tour for home.

There is a reason Monday nights get saved for family around in Utah, and this is the kind of show that earns the spot on the calendar. The touring production usually plays major cities and international capitals. When it lands in Ogden, Weber County families get the full show without the drive to Provo, a night of synchronized motion, big color, and an energy that pulls the whole row forward in their seats.

Bring the dance-team kid. Bring the grandparents. Bring anyone who needs a little sparkle and spectacle in their week. Monday, January 25, 7:30 PM. Browning Center at WSU.
