The Motor City’s premier dance company celebrates the music that made Motown famous in a razzle-dazzle evening of dance and music. Playful, humorous, and wonderfully theatrical, the performers will have you dancing in your seats – and out into the streets! Eisenhower Dance has spent the last 23 years giving life to the repertoire of internationally-known choreographers. Established in metro Detroit by Eisenhower in 1991, the Company presents an annual series and tours internationally.
