Convention trumps Zimbabwe for Durham dancer Davis

Bookmark and Share

Choreographer/dancer Chuck Davis (right) is going to Zimbabwe this summer to audition dancers for performing in the U.S. He's got to cut his trip short, though, he said the other day.

That's because his African American Dance Ensemble has been invited to perform at the Democrats' convention in Charlotte next month.

It's quite an honor, Davis said, and he's understandably excited, and he said he doesn't regret having to come back from Africa early.

"I've been to Zimbabwe," Davis said. "I've never performed for the Democratic National Convention."
