Salt Lake City’s very own Odyssey Dance Company performs a Halloween-themed dance concert each year at the Kingsbury Hall on the University of Utah campus. It’s quite spectacular, moderately priced and well worth the two hours. Candidly, I only learned about it from a dancer friend I met several years ago, as my social circles don’t normally overlap with non-nerds.
The dozen or so high tempo performances are at times irreverent, slightly frenetic, brilliant choreographed and expertly performed. The visual effects will leave you spell-bound and awestruck. You’ll laugh out loud, startle at the well-timed surprises and groove to the hip hop music. Be grateful you don’t have an isle seat (there is um, forced audience participation.)
