Moving with the season …

The Axis Dreamer Dance Company‘s first annual Winter Solstice Artist Celebration Dance Concert promises to “exceed the limits of all forms of dance.” The Chico-based troupe invites all ages to come and enjoy the artistry of eight local dancers, each an expert in African, hip-hop, tap, contemporary, ballet, modern, theater, improvisational movement, and many other forms of dance. Original, live music accompanies all locally choreographed pieces. Tickets (at the door): $10, general; $5, children under 12. The Senator Theater, 517 Main Street. 894-8621.
