'SIX DANCE LESSONS IN SIX WEEKS" SHINES AT ANNENBERG PALM SPRINGS


COYOTE STAGEWORKS PRODUCTION OF "SIX DANCES IN SIX WEEKS" IS MUST-SEE FUN


Coyote Stageworks Founder and Artistic Director Chuck Yates and
Lucie Arnaz congratulate stars Loretta Swit and David Engel on opening night

"Six Dances" is a funny, charming, and, at times poignant and significant play written by Richard Alfieri and directed by Larry Raben. It is a joy to see Loretta Swit as a "slightly older" lady dealing with her life by enhancing it with dance lessons given by her testy, complicated teacher played by David Engel. These are rich characters, and they are played to the hilt by Swit and Engel. Raben's direction beautifully treats the highs and lows with deft skill.

Palm Springs philanthropists Annette Bloch, David Lee, and Donna MacMillan are big supporters of Chuck and Coyote, and we have them to thank for this production and the up-coming season.
