When the lights go out, things tend to get funkier—and that’s just what Sugar Space intends for the second installment of After Dark, its adult-oriented, late-night series. Welcomed back are the soaring, daredevilish Revolve Aerial Dance and the hip-swinging, Latino collective Samba Fogo. But, there are a few new surprises. Chelsea Ellis Hip-hop Crew, along with stand-up act ToySoup Comedy, will add flair.
The mash-up of artists is intended to get a diverse
cross-section of performers—as well as attendees—mingling. If the lineup
alone isn’t enough, there’s a cash bar with cocktails before and after
each show, with DJ Tidy spinning some vinyl on the dance floor to get
folks grooving. Salt Lake City’s dance scene gets spicier with every After
Dark performance, and after the evening’s showcase in the intimate
Sugar Space studio, you might just be in the mood to put on your own
dancing shoes and see where the night will whisk you.
After Dark @ Sugar Space Studio, 616 Wilmington Ave., 888-300-7898, April 16, 8 & 10 p.m., $12. TheSugarSpace.com
