Company Detail |
|
Swingtime is a student-run swing performance troupe based at Stanford University in California. It was founded the fall of 2002 by four students - Megan Kale, Darick Tong, Maria Reese, and Andy Huang - in the wake of the dissolution of the Vintage Dance Ensemble. Swingtime specializes in technically precise savoy-style lindy hop, classic and modern jazz moves, high-flying aerials, and beautiful costumes. Their repertoire include both professional pieces and creative in-house choreographies, ranging from vintage 1940s swing to a modern, unique fusion of hip hop, jazz, and lindy. |
