Show Preview Article, Video, and Photos!

Click here to read an article published in yesterday’s Campus Circle.

“In a town where most dancers are not only competitive but flat-out cut throat, the LA Unbound company has seemed to surpass all of that animosity by creating a collective where many styles and types of dancers receive support and recognition… For anyone planning to go to the El Portal performances, you will definitely be entertained and inspired. With over 100 dancers and 20 dance pieces, you’ll get your money’s worth. From hip-hop to musical theater to contemporary dance pieces, there’s something for everyone.”

A video and photo album from our recent rehearsal can be viewed on our Facebook page.

Performance Photos and Review

We have recently posted beautiful photos from our August 28th & 29th performances at the El Portal including some fun dress rehearsal and behind-the-scenes shots. Check them out on FACEBOOK or PICASA. Thank you to our phenomenal photographers!

Also, a review of the show has been posted on PerformingArtsLive.com.
“With great passion these 100 plus dancers along with many choreographers and guest dance companies displayed numerous examples of dancing and choreographic brilliance. LA Unbound is a collection of dance forms that are seldom presented at one time; a mélange, a SMORGASBORD of dance. Dancemaster Betsy Uhler provides plenty of fun and entertainment for the audience as she and her collaborators present to you many delightful and exciting styles of dance ranging from contemporary dance, tap, pole dancing, incredible aerial performances and almost everything in between. We can’t wait until next year to see what amazement LA UNBOUND will bring.”
