The All Star Swing
Choreography by Lisa de Ribère
Music by Benny Goodman & Artie Shaw
16 minutes - 6 movements
8 women (minimum), 1 man
On Pointe (some dancers can be in soft shoes)
The All Star Swing presents a lighthearted spoof on the world of
athletics complete with pompoms and basketballs. The movements include
"Cheerleaders", "Gymnastics", and "Basketball,"
featuring a cameo ball-handling exhibition by a local teen basketball
player. There is also a male solo, "The All Star" (sort
of the Big Man On Campus) and the flirtatious "Tennis Pas de
Deux". This is all brought together by the lively final coda,
making The All Star Swing a perfect closing ballet.
