Kittery, Maine - RING IN THE RHYTHM! A JAZZ & TAP HOLIDAY will be presented for two shows only on Saturday, December 15 at 7:30pm and Sunday, December 16 at 2:00pm at The Dance Hall in Kittery, Maine. The joyful dance and music celebration features legendary tap dancer Brenda Bufalino; notable locals Drika Overton and Gay Nardone; and young lions Ryan
Casey and Ayan Imai-Hall, both dancers in NY based touring tap dance companies. The distinguished musicians include Mark Shilansky-piano, Nate Therrien-bass, Charlie Tokarz-reeds and Jonny Peiffer-percussion. Surprise guests will be making cameo performances!

Drika Overton's dream has been to fill the Dance Hall with the joy and spirit of dance. Overton believes in the power of music and dance to ring in the joyful spirit of the holidays, with tap dance and jazz artists who have been staples of the Seacoast performing scene since 1990. Unique voices blend the ages with their own choreographies and stories, inviting powerful next generation dancers to share their vitality and unique vision. Comedy, rhythm, heartfelt holiday longings, and the gifted melodic and harmonic arrangements of the world class musicians--including selections from the Clara's Dream A Jazz Nutcracker-- make for two unforgettable shows!
