SALT LAKE CITY, UT – Repertory Dance Theatre's "Ring Around the Rose" program welcomes the talented artists from Spy Hop Productions and the Utah Film Center for the first time on February 9,
2013 at 11:00 am.
The Utah Film Center and Spy Hop Productions are teaming up for an interactive animation experience
on the Ring Around the Rose stage. These Salt Lake City film experts will present some great short
films made for and by kids from the Utah Film Center's Tumbleweeds series. Then the artists will invite
the audience to help make a collaborative on-stage movie using stop motion animation to tell a story.
Lucky volunteers will be invited on stage to be a part of the magic as the audience watches the whole
thing unfold.
Repertory Dance Theatre is excited to have these innovative and exciting film artists on the Ring
Around the Rose series for the first time. Executive/Artistic Director, Linda Smith said, "Ring Around the Rose is designed to introduce children to the arts, and a wonderful way to collaborate with our peers in the community. This is the first time RDT has added filmmaking to the series. We want to welcome Spy Hop and the Utah Film Center in leading the exploration. "
