Sledgehammer/Let It Be

March 18th 7:30 pm, March 20th 7:30 pm, March 24th 7:30 pm, March 27th 2:00 pm

Sledgehammer

This 40-minute Peter Gabriel Suite, choreographed by Artistic Director Derryl Yeager, was one of the first major works created for Odyssey.  Sledgehammer is a blue-collar rock ballet--an ode to the common man that takes the audience on an exciting, touching, heartbreaking and heartwarming journey through everyday life. Danced in work jeans and t-shirts, this piece includes such Gabriel classics as Sledgehammer, Don't Give Up, In Your Eyes, Mercy Street, We Do What We're Told, and Big Time.

Let It Be

Back by popular demand, Let It Be is a full-length smash hit at home and on tour. The Beatles Anthology includes tunes such as Yesterday, Come Together, and Help. “Let it Be offers pieces of Brilliance and Nostalgia!”-Salt Lake Tribune. The show captures a lot of the humor in the Beatles’ songs and is for those who love dance and those who think they know nothing about dance.
