Join the Virgin Islands Council on the Arts (VICA) and Reichhold Center for the Arts in welcoming home Homer Hans Bryant and the Bryant Youth Professionals Dance Company at 7 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 26.
Enjoy a night with your family and ours as the Bryant Youth Professionals perform contemporary ballet and the newest dance craze, Hiplet™. This fresh dance style, created by Bryant, fuses urban dance moves with modern and classical ballet. Bryant created Hiplet to make ballet more appealing, by mixing it with current popular songs that will be familiar to audiences who don’t normally attend ballet performances.
“Homer Bryant is not just a VI Ambassador, but an icon whose impact has been felt across the globe,” said Denise Humphrey, Reichhold Center interim director. “This performance is in honor of him, the VICA and the great work they do in impacting the lives of students here and abroad.”
