...short series of dances set to music from commercials. TAPS served up a delightfully cheesy Mentos commercial and a well-executed Gap Khakis piece, while Mainly Jazz delivered solid performances in their renditions of an iPod commercial and an intricate, high-energy Pepsi commercial featuring the gymnastic feats of Elizabeth C. McKenna ’08. Both groups benefited from appropriately selected costumes, especially Mainly Jazz’s opening piece set to Lenny Kravitz’s “Lady” (the “Alias” theme song) and the TAPS presentations...
