Somerset County VoTech Tap Company Spreads Holiday Cheer

BRIDGEWATER, NJ — Throughout December, student members of the Tap Company, part of the Dance program at Somerset County Vocational & Technical High School (SCVTHS), tour the county bringing holiday cheer.

Each year, students prepare a number of dances that they rehearse and then perform at senior centers, schools, and other venues throughout the region. Student choreographers and guest artists develop the routines and work with their peers to polish the performance.

This year, the student choreographers are Marisa Scott and Michaela Cabales. SCVTHS Dance alumna Liz Carroll served as guest choreographer and provided guidance to the troupe.

The Tap Company performance features a holiday-themed repertoire, highlighted by a number of costume changes, that both entertain their audiences and allow them to exhibit the skills it has learned in its dance classes.

Members of the troupe include: Kacey Cupit of Green Brook, Quinn DeLisle of Hillsborough, Hannah Demetriou of Belle Mead, Zoey Korbylo of Flemington, Sierra Martin of Flemington, Riley Roberts of Flemington, Anya Rosciszewski of South Bound Brook, Marisa Scott of Bridgewater, and Isabel Spear of Branchburg. The Tap Company manager is Michaela Cabales of Phillipsburg.
