Doug Elkins and Friends

“Doug Elkins is an authentic creator who knows how to hustle and translate traditional choreographic language into new forms ….” Le Figaro, Paris
 
The downtown New York dance scene has always been defined as smart, witty and fresh. Doug Elkins takes it one step further with his creation of Fräulein Maria—a riff on the beloved movie musical, The Sound of Music, that has become a holiday staple at Joe’s Pub- NY Public Theatre. Featuring fabulous dancing that invokes choreographers from Ballet Russes to Gene Kelly, expect to laugh out loud and perhaps hum ‘These are a few of my favorite things’.

Bessie award-winning choreographer Elkins and his stellar troupe gleefully deconstruct The Sound of Music into an edgy and entertaining cabaret romp!  Who knew Do Re Mi could be so much fun?
