What kind of dance is the dance for the next generation dancers and thier audience? Innovative, creative, exciting, challenging, outstanding, expressive, energizing, motivating and meaningful. This is the objective that we set as a goal to accomplish as a company. First of all, we have the work of four different choreographers. Oliver Arana, former member of the Cincinnati Ballet, has his premier as a choreographer in his contemporary ballet "Triangulo" with the style, virtuosity and passion of a Latin Artist. Ellen Zipperstein in her modern dance "Gypsy Songs" explores a side of a gypsy's soul. Kelly King created two pieces: "Harem" with a colorful and exciting palette of choreography and costumes, and "In Visible" a mystical and magical fairytale. And "Quartet", four dances by Tatyana Makarova, that "represent a few special emotions that keep me going in this life". We hope you enjoy our efforts in exploring some of the different worlds of dance.
