SAVELLI DANCE PRESENTS

Rhythm ISS…and Friends

and the 2nd annual weekend of explosive tap dancing

Cleveland, OH – January 3, 2005 – For the second year in a row, you can see some of the most amazing tap dancers in the country at this annual weekend of explosive tap dancing, complete with student showcase, professional tap performance, and master classes. On Saturday, January 15 at 8pm, Rhythm ISS…and Friends will perform at the Lakeland Community College Performing Arts Center in Kirtland, OH. On Sunday, January 16 starting at 9am, and continuing throughout the day, a wide selection of master classes will be offered (tap, jazz, and musical theater) at Savelli Dance in Mentor.

Performers and teachers include Jennifer Savelli, who has performed in numerous Broadway shows, including Fosse and the Boy from Oz, as well as the motion picture Chicago; dancer/choreographers Jay and Connie Fagan, aka Sibling Rivalry; and Sarah Savelli and Rhythm ISS…, a Chicago based all-female tap company founded in 1995 by (I)della Reed, (S)arah Savelli, and (S)haron Rushing (ISS). Reviewed in the October 2003 issue of Dance Magazine as “a quintet of women rhythm tappers impressive as much for their exuberant spirit as for their blistering footwork”, Rhythm ISS… has performed and taught master classes nationally and internationally to rave reviews. The company continues to electrify audiences with shows that include every style of tap dancing; with an eclectic repertoire that includes rhythm tap, jazz tap, hoofing, funk, and hip hop. They have been featured in many tap festivals and benefits, including the 2003 Tap Extravaganza and the Chicago Human Rhythm Project, as well as
 conceiving and producing many shows of their own. Rhythm ISS… is also featured in the PBS documentary Juba! The Masters of Tap and Percussive Dance (co-produced by Chicago Human Rhythm Project), and in the April 2003 issue of Dance Teacher Now. Incorporating all styles of tap dancing with the feminine flare they have become known for, Rhythm ISS… strives to preserve the art of tap dancing while inspiring future generations of girls who are looking for footsteps to follow. 

Returning also for a second year as a performer and teacher is Jumaane Taylor, a phenomenal up and coming tap dancer from Chicago. Known for his amazing and intricate footwork, Jumaane is representing the newest generation of tap as a member of M.A.D.D. Rhythms, a Chicago based tap company.  

If you love to tap, don’t miss this! The Rhythm ISS… and Friends performance will be held on Saturday, January 15 at 8pm at Lakeland Community College Performing Arts Center, 7700 Clocktower Dr, Kirtland, OH 44094. Tickets for the performance are $12 for adults and $10 for children 8 and under. The master classes will be held on January 16 starting at 9am at Savelli Dance, 7516 Tyler Blvd, Mentor, OH 44060. All tap dancers ages 11 & up are welcome. Class fees vary with number of individual classes taken. Also on Sunday, there will be an audition for a $200 scholarship towards classes at the 2005 Chicago Human Rhythm Project, the oldest and largest tap festival in the country. For more information, or to buy tickets, contact Sarah Savelli.
