Step Back in Time: SCC’s ‘Flashback’ Dance Concert Showcases Local Talent on May 10

The Dance Department at Solano Community College (SCC) is set to host its annual spring dance concert, 'Flashback,' on May 10, 2024. The event will be held at the Solano College Theatre in Fairfield, CA, starting at 7:30 p.m. The concert will feature a variety of dance styles including modern, jazz, hip hop, ballet, contemporary, and disco, performed by current and former SCC students, guest artists, and faculty choreographers.

This year's concert will also include performances by students from the Early College High School (ECHS) program. SCC Superintendent-President Celia Esposito-Noy, who recently announced her retirement, will make a special appearance. The performances will be set to popular '70s music, aligning with the concert's theme, 'Flashback.'

The concert is directed by Ginger Cain, a former competitor and instructor at Fred Astaire Dance Studio, who specializes in disco. Guest choreographers, including Eliana Baker and Jeylisa Corona, have helped create a program that aims to connect with audiences through nostalgic '70s music and dance.

The event will also honor two SCC graduates. Janessa Sales will be the first to earn an Associate of Arts degree in Dance from SCC, a program initiated by Cain in 2020. Eliana Baker will receive an AA Degree in Liberal Studies and plans to pursue a career in Dance-Kinesiology at CSU Northridge.
