The Final Countdown


For the past several days, I've had the song "The Final Countdown", released in 1986 by the band Europe, stuck in my head. But not the whole song, just the lyric "it's the final countdown" with the accompanying keyboard riff. Appropriate enough, as Full Radius Dance is now a week away from presenting our 20th anniversary concert. 20 years. Have I really been on this journey for two decades?

It all started with "Beginnings: A Dance Premiere" on June 22, 1991. Back then, the company was known as Dance Force. The original company was Berneta Bock, Cherie Carson, Jim Chappeleaux, Deirdre Driscoll, Kelly Oakes-Dent and, myself, Douglas Scott.

And now I offer "The Path Beyond" on January 20 & 21, 2012. Dance Force evolved into Full Radius Dance and "The Path Beyond" features Lindy Dannelley, Marshall Hamilton, Julie Holcomb, Samir Jusupovic, Laurel Lawson, Takiyah Sermons and Onur Topal-Sumer. Oh, and I'm still Artistic Director!

Please join us as we celebrate with a concert of new work.

Tickets are available at http://fullradiusdance.ticketleap.com/the-path-beyond/

Hope to see you there!

Douglas
