Description

Jesse Jones, dance captain for the Broadway touring production of “The Wiz,” leads a movement workshop for theater students at Jefferson High School.

On Thursday morning, Jefferson High School theater students worked to keep pace with a complex choreography routine fit for a Broadway stage. Dancing on vintage green carpet, they gathered in a large open space that has served many purposes over the years — first as the school’s gymnasium, later as a TV studio and, most recently, as home to the theater department.
