"Tears of Joy" at BU

Tonight, the jazz ballet piece "Tears of Joy" will be performed at the Boston Youth Moves Dance Company Concert at Boston University Dance Theater at 915 Commonwealth Avenue.

The piece is set to music by Count Basie and Duke Ellington and is choreographed by the late Richard Jones. The piece tells the story of a reunion of World War II friends. Other pieces being performed tonight include work by Hope Boykin from Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre, dancer Kristina Berger and "Fosse" creator Chet Walker.

Tonight's show begins at 8pm and tickets are a little on the steeper side: $25 general admission and $20 for seniors and children under 12 years old.
