American Midwest Ballet's (AMB) Season 16 opening production, “Momentum” can be seen on October 18 & 19 at the Hoff Family Arts & Culture Center. And AMB has a very interesting guest artist coming in: Dylis Croman, who will be staging the production of Bob Fosse's Sing, Sing, Sing. Not only is Dylis a legit Broadway star (she has rotated in periodically as Roxie Hart in Chicago and was in the 2023 revival cast of Fosse's Dancin') but she is a very inspiring talker on the subject of Fosse's style and legacy.
The showstopper of Bob Fosse’s award-winning 1978 Broadway musical Dancin’, this work evokes a 1930s nightclub where patrons step out to sizzling swing music. Epitomizing the choreographer’s distinctive style, Sing, Sing, Sing has come to be regarded as a crown jewel of Fosse choreography. Staging it for AMB will be musical-theater star Dylis Croman, a protégé of Fosse muse Ann Reinking and a cast member in the 2023 Broadway revival of Dancin’.
