Convergence 2018 - The 32nd Annual Jazz & Tap Dance Festival

Jazz the house - an American dance event!

Enjoy America's indigenous dance art form - Jazz Dance at Convergence 2018 - the 32nd Annual Jazz & Tap Dance Festival. "A dance festival with energy and soul."

Convergence 2018 is a presentation of the evolution of American jazz dance with the other dance styles, fusing them into new, appealing presentations that are vital, fresh, rhythmic, energetic. The show is representative of our national dance spirit as it synthesizes the dance art that honors original street dance techniques, jazz dance with contemporary inspiration.

Choreographers today are mixing and merging the classic entertainment dance styles of jazz, tap, hip hop, contemporary, and Broadway. Each participating dance company will bring something unique to the stage that may blend jazz dance with hip hop, tap, or modern dance with a contemporary flair.

Convergence 2018 is produced as a collaboration by Marilyn York with six spectacular dance companies:
* Dancin' Unlimited
* Encore Performers
* iMpulse (Metropolitan School of the Arts)
