Sole Defined: EFA 2023 Performance

Sole Defined will bring a bright and powerful "SOLE Defined LIVE Show" to Miller Auditorium.!


The production will feature several seemingly separate pieces that blend effortlessly together. They will delight our audiences with intricate live soundscapes creating a unique ephemeral experience. 

Sole Defined’s performance will feature tap dance, vocalization, body percussion, sand dance, live and recorded music. Our audiences will enjoy some interactive features and both sections of choreography and moments of improvisation. It will be an unforgettable experience leaving viewers energized and excited.
