This Week
The daughter of a ballet dancer and a champion soccer coach, Michelle Dorrance is a tap dancer of gawky grace with especially quick, smart feet. But she has won particular attention for her choreographic creativity in extending tap tradition in new directions. In “ETM: Double Down” (at the Joyce, April 26-May 1), the virtuosic footwork of Dorrance and her affable company, Dorrance Dance, triggers digitally produced sounds, bringing the rhythms of metal-tipped shoes into the age of electronic dance music.
