on stage.”
Half Time tells the true story of
10 determined dreamers who
audition to dance at half time
for the New Jersey Nets. They all
have three things in common:
they love to dance, they have
something to prove and they are
all over 60.

longer play in Newark, but the
amazing story of the first senior
hip hop dance team lives on.
Ironically, it is now being per-
formed less than 10 miles from
where the original story took

and choreographed by Tony
Award-winner Jerry Mitchell
with an award-winning cast that
includes Georgia Engel, Lillias
White, André De Shields and
Donna McKechnie.
