Performing on percussive electronic tap boards designed and made by Young, the company creates a thrilling combination of movement and music, producing what Dorrance and Young call ETM (which stands for Electronic Tap Music).

With Afro-Brazilian, indie-pop, and music from Adele triggered by the eight dancers footwork, ETM: Double Down takes this American dance form to a new level and reminds the audience that tap dancing is something to both watch and listen to. Young built the ETM: Double Down equipment over two years, connecting them to a Musical Instrument Digital Interface (MIDI) controller, popular in electronic music since the 1980s. ETM: Double Down also features live music by an acoustic trio that includes vocalist Aaron Marcellus, bassist Gregory Richardson and pianist Donovan Dorrance. Along with the musicians, there are seven tap dancers, including Dorrance and Van Young, Ephrat Bounce Asherie, a B-girl (2016 Bess Award Winner), whose movement also activates the music, Christopher Broughton, Elizabeth Burke, Warren Craft, Leonardo Sandoval and Byron Tittle. Dorrance Dance honors tap dance s unique history in a new context by upholding the traditional form while pushing its rhythmic, technical, and conceptual boundaries. The company is passionately committed to expanding the audience of tap dance, America s long-standing indigenous jazz vernacular. By incorporating other forms that have shaped the foundation of American culture such as street, club & experimental dance Dorrance Dance highlights the traditional elements of tap dance and its musical rhythms in a contemporary light. Founded in 2011 by Artistic Director and 2015 MacArthur Fellow Michelle Dorrance, the company s inaugural performance garnered a Bessie Award for blasting open our notions of tap.

The company is currently touring its repertory nationally and internationally while rehearsing and creating new works in its NYC home and through creative residency opportunities. As Dorrance Dance continues to expand its programs to help shape and educate the next generation of tap dancers, the company will partner with Nicholas Van Young's Institute for the Rhythmic Arts, among other educational initiatives.
