Capitol Ballet Company and Robyn Nash<\/h2>\n

At the restoration of the Capitol Ballet Company at the University of the District of Columbia in 1988, for old times’ sake, so to speak, Robyn Nash, a veteran of the old Capitol Ballet Company, performed (alongside Treanna Reid-Alexander<\/a> and Rodney Green<\/a>) in Doris Jones<\/a>‘ wonderfully flavorsome and inventive tap number Bach Vibrations<\/em>, created in 1973 and a Capitol classic ever since.<\/span><\/p>\n
