The
Dance features three couples whose stories are entwined together
at a dance. Harvard student Cameron (KC CLYDE) reluctantly agrees
to take a break from his busy student life and go to a dance organized
by his English literature professor, Charles Gordon (MICHAEL FLYNN.)
Cameron finds the nerve to ask his older brother's ex-girlfriend
Zoe (KARI HAWKER), a beautiful, focused and rather intimidating
dance student. Zoe, with some trepidation, accepts the offer but
the two only stay at the dance long enough to make Cameron's ex-girlfriend
jealous.
Meanwhile, bachelor Howard (SCOTT CHRISTOPHER), a witty, successful
and career-obsessed day trader gets pressed into acting as emcee
for the dance. His date is Alyson (MONIQUE LANIER,) a sweet, kind-hearted
single mother of two who is really excited about her first post-divorce
date. At
first she shrugs off Howard's insensitive and sarcastic wit, but
when it hits too close to home, Alyson confronts him about it.
When he's teaching at school, Charles is the ultimate genius on
romance and Shakespeare. But at home, he seems to resemble Hamlet
more closely than Romeo. Charles and his wife Laura (JOYCE COHEN)
end up going separately to the dance when Charles's biting cynicism
cuts too deeply. The story reveals a relationship that has been
slowly deteriorating.
As the music plays on, these three couples delve a little deeper
into their hearts to reveal the steps they need to take in their
relationships. The Dance unveils the passion, heartache
and hope to which any couple can relate.
