The Tap Dance Residency program is currently being coordinated through the Chicago Tap Theatre. Mr. Mark Yonally, director of the Chicago Tap Theatre, comes to Bell twice a week for twenty weeks to teach deaf students the art of tap dancing. This is the only residency that is not based on language, but rather it is based on movement and vibration of sound. For this reason, it is fully accessible for our deaf students. Bell School hopes to increase funding to incorporate some of their inclusion classes into the residency over the next few years.
