The North Carolina Youth Tap Ensemble presents: Rhythms Reimagined, a dynamic tribute to the company’s 42-year legacy in the art of tap dance.

Join the world-renowned North Carolina Youth Tap Ensemble (NCYTE) and esteemed guest artists Luke Hickey and Elizabeth Burke for Rhythms Reimagined—a dynamic tribute to the company’s 42-year legacy in the art of tap dance. 

Produced by NCYTE’s senior members and their Artistic Director, this production offers a fresh perspective on the ensemble’s extensive repertory, featuring newly unearthed archival works, innovative premieres, and audience favorites. Presented in distinct chapters, Rhythms Reimagined highlights the evolution of tap dance through a diverse range of styles, including traditional soft shoe, stair dancing, sand dancing, body percussion, and the cutting edge of rhythm tap.

NCYTE is honored to welcome back alumni Luke Hickey and Elizabeth Burke (of Dorrance Dance) as special guest performers, celebrating the past, present, and future of this vibrant art form.
