Casiana Productions specializes in entertainment video films featuring Ballroom and Latin Dancing. The aim of the founders was production of top quality video programs for a broad spectrum audience by featuring social and professional couples dancing to contemporary and classic tunes. Goals were to entertain, instruct, and to sell products and services.
Club Tango is a variety show featuring the world’s top competitive couples , interviews, news, costuming and fashion. Casiana traveled to Toronto and Cincinnati to find the latest in amateur, professional, and novice programs and competitions. Five one-half hour shows were produced and seen in the local television market with excellent reviews and ratings.
The action in the Club Tango series takes place in a club atmosphere while the content is reminiscent of early television variety programs such as Ed Sullivan’s, Toast of the Town; Arthur Murray Dance Party, and the perennial Lawrence Welk Show.
Strictly Dancing took the partners in a different direction. This format is suggestive of theater shows as seen in Las Vegas, Broadway, and Hollywood musicals.
Craig S. Cassel and Georgia-Ann Pitcher formed Casiana Productions in 1996 in Indianapolis, IN combining their experiences in business, professional, and amateur dancing to provide top entertainment for television and beyond.
