The Mountlake Terrace Dance Academy presents their year-end recital, “Wild Wild West,” on June 17.
Performances will be at 1 p.m. and 5 p.m. at the Mountlake Terrace High School Theater. Tickets are $15 and can be purchased online or at the box office one hour before each show.
The iconic Wild Wild West represents many themes, including self-reliance, ingenuity, rugged wilderness, animal and human predators, danger and lawlessness. At the same time, the risks of the frontier promised independence, freedom and opportunity.
The Mountlake Terrace Dance Academy team has curated a collection of fun and thoughtful dances that are inspired by the beauty of the West. Think mountains, deserts, rivers, flora, fauna and the spirit of exploration. We'll take a visit to the local barn dance and watch a snake oil salesman make their pitch.
“Late-night musings around a campfire under a vast starry sky lead to thoughts about who we are, where we're headed, and the seasons of life,” said Chloe Davenport, Dance & Fitness Programmer. “Come see this entertaining live show and support your dance community!
MLT Dance Academy, a program through Recreation & Parks, provides instruction in Ballet, Jazz, Lyrical, Tap, and Irish Step Dance for ages 3.5 through adult.
